Abstract
Objective: Epiglottic cysts are common in clinic and are excised by operation. Our department adopts domestic radiofrequency therapy apparatus which is low in cost. At the same time, the radiofrequency ablation of the radiofrequency treatment group has the function of stopping bleeding and reducing recurrence. Method: All 40 patients were divided into 2 groups according to random numerical expressions. The epiglottic cyst of the 20 patients in the treatment group was excised by radiofrequency snare and that of patients in the control group was excised by routine operation. Results: The postoperative pathological diagnosis of the 40 patients was in accordance with epiglottic cyst. The curative rate in radiofrequency treatment group is 100% and in routine operation group is 95%. Conclusion: With our operation, the thrombus formation and the vascular occlusion have good anastalsis. The snare can be freely operated under the under self-retaining laryngoscope to ablate masses, which maximally protects the surrounding normal tissues.
