THROAT
We treat all ear-related problems, from simple issues to complex disorders, with customized
treatment options that relieve the discomfort of ear conditions.
Microlaryngeal surgery
Microlaryngeal surgery is a type of minimally invasive surgery that uses specialized instruments and techniques to remove tumors or other abnormal growths from the larynx (voice box) and surrounding structures. It is usually performed by an otolaryngologist (ENT) or a laryngologist, who are physicians that specialize in the treatment of conditions of the ear, nose, and throat.
Immunotherapy
Vocal nodules and vocal papillomas are two different types of benign (non-cancerous) growths that can develop on the vocal cords, which are the two small bands of muscle located in the larynx (voice box) that vibrate to produce sound. These growths can cause a variety of symptoms, including hoarseness, difficulty speaking, and difficulty swallowing.
Videoendoscopy of throat
Videoendoscopy of the throat, also known as a laryngoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure that uses a small camera and a light source (endoscope) to examine the inside of the throat and larynx (voice box). The procedure is typically performed by an otolaryngologist (ENT) or a laryngologist, who are physicians that specialize in the treatment of conditions of the ear, nose, and throat.
Malignancies of throat management
Malignancies of the throat, also known as head and neck cancer, refer to a group of cancers that develop in the structures of the head and neck, including the larynx (voice box), pharynx (throat), nose, sinuses, and mouth. These cancers are often caused by tobacco and alcohol use, as well as exposure to certain chemicals and viruses, such as human papillomavirus (HPV).
HEAD & NECK
We provide a wide range of services to help patients with head and neck disorders.
Thyroidectomy
Thyroidectomy is a surgical procedure in which all or part of the thyroid gland is removed. The thyroid gland is a small butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck, and it plays an important role in regulating the body’s metabolism. The most common reason for thyroidectomy is to treat thyroid cancer or a benign thyroid nodule. It can also be used for other conditions such as thyroiditis, goiter, and hyperthyroidism, or as a treatment for Graves’ disease.
Tracheostomy
A tracheostomy, also known as a tracheotomy, is a surgical procedure in which a hole is made in the front of the neck, through which a tube is inserted into the trachea (windpipe) to help a person breathe. This procedure is usually performed when a person has an obstruction in the upper airway, making it difficult for them to breathe. It’s important to note that tracheostomy is a temporary procedure and the goal is to wean the patient off the tube and close the tracheostomy as soon as possible.
Parotidectomy
A parotidectomy is a surgical procedure in which all or part of the parotid gland is removed. The parotid gland is the largest of the salivary glands and it is located in front of and below the ear. The gland produces saliva that helps lubricate the mouth and aid in swallowing. The most common reason for a parotidectomy is to remove a benign or malignant tumor from the gland. The most common benign tumors are pleomorphic adenomas, and the most common malignant tumors are mucoepidermoid carcinomas.
Submandibular gland excision
Submandibular gland excision is a surgical procedure in which all or part of the submandibular gland is removed. The submandibular gland is one of the three major salivary glands in the human body, located beneath the jaw and in front of the neck. The gland produces saliva which helps lubricate the mouth and aid in swallowing.
Malignancies of Head & Neck
Malignancies of the head and neck refer to cancerous tumors that develop in the regions of the head and neck, including the oral cavity, larynx, pharynx, nasal cavity, sinuses, and salivary glands. These cancers can be caused by a variety of factors, such as tobacco and alcohol use, exposure to certain chemicals and viruses, and genetic predisposition.
