Sub-Specialty Training in OTOHNS
Laryngology
Laryngology training is most extensive during rotations at KUMC
and VAMC. Both institutions have laryngeal laboratories with videostroboscopy
instrumentation. An extensive introduction to advanced laryngologic
techniques, such as laryngeal EMG, botulinum toxin injections and
transnasal esophagoscopy is available during the KUMC Red Team
rotation. The rotating resident at KUMC, KU MedWest and the VA
Medical Center learns operative microlaryngoscopy with extensive
use of laser therapy.
