Abstract

Although many reports can be found in the literature about temporal bone holders for postgraduate temporal bone surgery courses, the author did not find any kind of suitable description of a larynx holder for laryngomicrosurgery courses. A cadaver larynx holder is presented, made by the author himself for individual and postgraduate teaching courses. This simple model has been proved already to be a unique and a very useful tool for a practising course on laryngomicrosurgery during two training courses and the instructional session of the IIIrd EUFOS Congress in Hungary in 1996.
