Voice Box Surgery Using a Microscope

Massachusetts rates for HCPCS 31541

A rigid scope is placed through the mouth to view the voice box directly while the patient is asleep, and a growth is removed or an abnormal layer is stripped from a vocal cord or the epiglottis. An operating microscope or telescope is used for magnification, which allows finer work on the delicate vocal cord surface. No external incision is made.
