Summary
Total laryngectomy with bilateral block neck dissection is considered one of the major head
and neck surgeries. Intraoperative bleeding is considered a risk factor for this operation
specially that the population of this operation are elder with multiple comorbidities.
Intravenous administration of tranexamic acid reduces bleeding during surgery.We design this
study aiming to prove the role of topical tranexamic acid in controlling the intraoperative
bleeding in patients undergoing total laryngectomy operation avoiding the risk of intravenous
administration.
