Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Pharmacological Delivery

Background:

  • Laryngeal injections are crucial for treating various laryngeal conditions.
  • Established methods include transoral and transcutaneous routes.
  • These techniques may not be suitable for all patients or anatomical variations.

Observation:

  • A case requiring laryngeal injection was not amenable to standard transoral or transcutaneous techniques.
  • A novel approach involving entry through the thyrohyoid membrane was considered.
  • This thyrohyoid approach was successfully employed for cidofovir injection.

Findings:

  • The thyrohyoid approach provides a feasible alternative for laryngeal injection.
  • Successful delivery of cidofovir was achieved using this method.
