Almura-Kopetsky Operation

Almur-Kopetsky surgery is a surgical procedure that is used to treat diseases of the pharynx and larynx. It was named after two otorhinolaryngologists - R. Almura and J. Kopecky, who first described this operation in 1923.

The operation is performed to eliminate tumors, polyps, cysts and other neoplasms in the larynx, as well as to restore the vocal cords. During the operation, the surgeon removes the diseased tissue from the larynx and restores its shape so that the patient can breathe and speak normally.

Almura-Kopetsky surgery can be performed under both local and general anesthesia. After surgery, the patient is advised to maintain vocal rest and avoid smoking to ensure rapid and complete voice recovery.

Although the Almur-Kopecky surgery is considered a relatively safe and effective procedure, like any other type of surgery, it may be associated with certain risks and complications. Before undergoing surgery, the patient should discuss all possible risks and side effects with the doctor.

In general, the Almur-Kopetsky operation is an important tool for the treatment of diseases of the larynx and vocal cords. Thanks to this procedure, many patients were able to return to normal life and restore their voice. If you have problems with your voice or throat, consult a specialist for advice and further treatment.
