CO2 laser systems enable highly controlled smart tissue managment for treating delicate anatomy and preservation of healthy tissue. It is most used for endoscopic transoral microsurgery of the pharynx and larynx because allows precision and efficiency. Due to the delicacy and minimally invasive operative method, CO₂ lasers are increasingly becoming a first line treatment of early stage airway cancers, especially in the larynx. Studies have demonstrated considerable cost savings and equivalent or better treatment outcomes for transoral laser resection of laryngeal tumors in comparison to radiation.
