Abstract
Laryngeal dysplasia is a poorly understood pre-malignant condition that requires diligent surveillance, to ensure timely diagnosis and optimal management. A dedicated laryngeal dysplasia clinic provides a platform for regular surveillance of these patients and for prospective data analysis. Our follow-up strategy is different to the recommendations from the ENT-UK consensus document on laryngeal dysplasia but appears to be a reasonable approach. The clinical appearance of the laryngeal lesion, histological grade of dysplasia and continual exposure to risk factors are factors in determining decision making for follow-up and re-biopsy. Multi-centre prospective collection of data and analysis of outcomes will provide evidence for best practice. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
