How I Do It: Two Novel, Low‐Cost Phonomicrosurgery Models With Open‐Source, 3D‐Printed Laryngoscopes
Two new vocal fold microflap models using products found in any grocery store have been developed along with publicly available 3D‐printable parts for simulating multiple laryngoscopes commonly used during laryngeal phonomicrosurgery. This represents a low cost, easily reproducible model for basic laryngeal phonomicrosurgery training.
