Assessing the Accuracy, Safety, and Tolerance of Office‐Based Endoscopic Biopsies for Laryngopharyngeal Lesions

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This prospective study assessed the accuracy, safety, and tolerance of 490 office‐based biopsies for the diagnosis of laryngopharyngeal lesions. Results showed that OBBs, mainly taken from the glottic and supraglottic larynx, were generally well‐tolerated, with a low complication rate and high diagnostic accuracy.
