Abstract

Background: Anterior commissure webs, also known as anterior commissure webs, are a rare condition in the respiratory system where the soft tissues on the anterior surface of the vocal cords fuse and form a narrow anterior commissure in the narrow area of ​​the larynx. Objective: To describe an overview of some methods of treating anterior commissure webs. To describe the results of some methods of anterior commissure webs. Methodology: Data on bilateral anterior commissure webs in studies, including data on characteristics (clinical, paraclinical, treatment methods, age, history, comorbidities, etc.) Results: Studies used a series of subjective and objective assessment tools to provide a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of anterior commissure webs treatment. Conclusion: Band excision surgery is the most common method, in which CO₂ laser has demonstrated advantages with the ability to cut precisely, reduce thermal damage, and control the scar formation process well.
