The key to a successful microlaryngoscopy is adequate operative field exposure and illumination. A variety of airway control procedures has been developed to improve operative exposure. A small size endotracheal tube is commonly used. However, some surgeon may suggest a 'no-tube' technique to optimize the surgical field. This study aims to investigate effectiveness and safety of a novel technique by supraglottic jet oxygenation and ventilation (SJOV) via nasal approach to facilitate optimal visualization in laser microlaryngeal surgery for small vocal polyps resection.

Numerical rating scale (NRS) rated by surgeon
Timeframe: Immediately after surgery, the surgeons rated surgical exposure and visualization with NRS only once.
