Abstract
- Office-based procedures of laryngoesophageal region have become significantly more common in recent years. The term "office-based" refers to an awake patient in an upright position, typically with no sedation and receiving local topical anesthesia alone. The goal of this article is to introduce various recent office-based laryngological procedures, including diagnosis and treatment and to review of literatures along with our experiences. The authors hope that this document will encourage otolaryngologists to expand the role of office-based diagnosis and treatment in laryngology for the best treatment of their patients' care.
