Abstract

AbstractMicroscopic laryngoscopy can augment the skills of the laryngologist by adding increased magnification, depth perception and bimanual micromanipulation during direct laryngoscopy.By interfacing the Zeiss operating microscope to a low‐light‐sensitive high‐resolution color television camera, via a fiberoptic bundle, the surgeon may operate and teach, unencumbered by the addition of television equipment. This unique capability enhances the teaching of laryngology by: Crystallizing the three‐dimensional anatomical visual image of the student. Allowing appreciation of the dynamic laryngeal view during direct laryngoscopy. Demonstrating the fine, accurate maneuvers of laryngeal instruments. Allowing the instructor to monitor visually the surgical actions of the novice, advising and directing his manipulations, while allowing the student to gain personal surgical skills and confidence. Demonstrating laryngeal lesions and surgery to an unlimited audience. Recording on color videotape, laryngeal anatomy, lesions and surgery.
