Under general anesthesia and without intubation, the laryngoscope was inserted.

the glottis itself were free of disease. A biopsy was taken. The cords were moving
normally."
The mass, as was mentioned above, occupies the left supraglottic areas from the level
of the false cord up to the aryepiglottic fold. It does not pass the midline. It was
friable, but with no excessive bleeding.
The patient tolerated the procedure well and left the operating room in good
condition.
