Dysphagia Surgery

Treatment Details

Surgery is one of the important methods in the treatment of dysphagia. Especially in swallowing problems originating from the vocal cords and trachea, surgery is often necessary.

Surgical Treatments Used in Dysphagia Management

– Dysphagia injection,
– Esophageal balloon dilation surgery,
– Laser esophageal dilation surgery (Cricopharyngeal Myotomy),
– Laryngotracheal Separation surgery, and
– Aspiration Prevention Surgery (Partial Laryngectomy)
can be one of many different surgical procedures.

The majority of these treatments are performed orally, meaning they are endoscopic treatments. However, in some cases, open surgeries may be unavoidable for the treatment of the disease.  The crucial aspect is determining the most ideal treatment for the patient.
