The objective is to describe an innovative laryngoscope developed to improve visualization, provide greater exposure, and enhance precision and success during transoral procedures. A retrospective review of 170 patients who underwent transoral surgery with a new distending laryngoscope was conducted. We compared and contrasted our exposure within the oropharynx, hypopharynx, and larynx using the laryngoscope with that of currently available instrumentation. Specific mechanical dimensions of the laryngoscope along with the provided working field were calculated. Experience with the new laryngoscope afforded improved exposure over currently available instrumentation. This laryngoscope was manufactured using design elements from the Steiner, Weerda, and Lindholm laryngoscopes, including an anteriorly curved distal tip, distending capability, and lateral wings to protect against tongue herniation. The panoramic view was increased allowing for wider exposure of the supraglottis and pharynx.
