Wide local excision involves removing a tumor in the oral cavity along with a generous margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete eradication. When bone or deeper structures are involved, a composite resection is performed, removing both soft tissue and adjacent bone en bloc. Dr. Hitesh R. Singhavi routinely applies these techniques to lesions of the tongue (both mobile and base), floor of mouth, buccal mucosa (inner cheek), gingiva (gums), and hard palate. The goal is to clear disease completely while respecting critical anatomic boundaries.
Laryngoscopy is a specialized procedure used to examine the throat, voice box (larynx), and vocal cords, crucial for diagnosing a variety of head and neck conditions. At Dr. Hitesh Singhavi’s clinic, we offer advanced laryngoscopy services performed with precision, care, and patient comfort in mind.
This minimally invasive procedure involves the use of a thin, flexible or rigid tube equipped with a light and camera to closely inspect the laryngeal structures. It is commonly recommended for patients experiencing hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, throat pain, persistent cough, or a lump in the throat.
Laryngoscopy allows early detection of tumors, vocal cord lesions, infections, structural abnormalities, and other serious conditions. Early diagnosis is especially critical in head and neck cancers, where timely intervention can dramatically improve outcomes.
Dr. Singhavi’s expertise ensures that the procedure is quick, safe, and informative, often performed on an outpatient basis with little to no downtime. In cases where further evaluation is needed, biopsies or additional imaging may be advised based on the laryngoscopic findings.
At our center, we prioritize patient comfort, clear communication, and thorough evaluation, ensuring that each laryngoscopy contributes meaningfully to the diagnosis and planning of the best possible care.
