Traditionally, debulking of obstructing laryngeal tumours has been performed with cold steel instruments or CO2 lasers. With recent technological advances and increased availability of microdebriders, powered instrumentation for debulking laryngeal tumours has become a viable option. We describe the use of the Xomed laryngeal Tricut blade in re-establishing the airways in four patients with obstructing laryngeal tumours. In all cases a tracheostomy was avoided, thus allowing adequate time to stage each patient and tailor surgery to the individual.
