Voice Box Injection With Flexible Scope

Connecticut rates for HCPCS 31573

A slim flexible scope is passed through the nose so the doctor can watch the voice box while medicine is injected into it. The injection may be made through the skin of the neck or through the mouth, whichever suits the patient and the target being treated. The medicine may be a muscle-relaxing agent for a voice or spasm disorder, or a steroid to settle inflammation or scarring.
