Laser surgery has been advocated for treatment of many laryngeal lesions. Although the CO2 laser has many advantages, its safe use requires special education of the surgeon and operating room team, and considerable surgical skill. Several dangers inherent in laser use for laryngeal surgery must be considered. These include vocal fold scarring secondary to thermal injury, loss of histopathologically important tissue through vaporization, airway fire and others. Laser-related complications must be considered whenever use of this instrument is contemplated.
激光手术已被提倡用于治疗多种喉部病变。尽管二氧化碳激光有许多优点，但其安全使用需要外科医生和手术室团队接受特殊培训，并且需要相当高的手术技巧。必须考虑激光用于喉部手术所固有的几种危险。这些包括热损伤继发的声带瘢痕形成、因汽化导致组织病理学重要组织的丢失、气道着火等。每当考虑使用该器械时，都必须考虑与激光相关的并发症。
