Indirect mirror laryngoscopy is difficult to learn. An anatomic model of the oropharynx and larynx is described here. This model is used to familiarize medical students with the component skills of mirror laryngoscopy. The students progress to competency at mirror laryngoscopy on patients more quickly after initial use of this model.

Laryngeal photography -- still, motion, and television -- is of great value in teaching students and residents, in communicating findings to colleagues, and in demonstrating surgical technique in microsurgery of the larynx. Acceptable photographs can be achieved at moderate cost using the optical system of the Zeiss microscope, photo-adapters and an appropriate 35 mm camera body, 16 mm movie camera, and/or lightweight TV color camera. Large bore fiberoptic light carriers are used in the laryngoscope to carry maximum amount of light from the quartz iodide light source or indium-iodide lamp. These techniques interfere minimally with the operation.
