Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To review our experience with the use of the CO2 laser combined with pingyangmycin in the treatment of pharyngeal and laryngeal hemangioma.
METHOD:A retrospective review of 18 patients with pharyngeal and laryngeal hemangioma treated with CO2 laser combined with pingyangmycin was carried out in our hospital: patients medical charts were evaluated for factors such as age, sex, location of hemangioma, number of laser procedures performed, and postoperative results, including short and long term complications.
RESULT:All the 18 patients were underwent operation without any complications such as pharyngeal and laryngeal hemorrhage, infection of incisional wound,laryngeal edema, etc. Data of follow-up for 7 months to 5 years, showed that excellent local control was achieved in all cases with the exception of one case of recurrence. The one case recurred 4 months after operation and treated with CO2 laser again.
CONCLUSION:With careful selection of patients, the CO2 laser combined with pingyangmycin pingyangmycin is a safe and effective treatment for pharyngeal and laryngeal hemangioma with the following advantages: precise location for treating, less bleeding, clear operating field, simple management, low risk of infection, less post-operation reaction, protection of laryngeal and pharyngeal structures and avoidance of tracheostomy.
