dc.description.abstract	In this study, we present a new approach to improving vocal fold access to perform phonomicrosurgery. It is done by shooting the laser through a mirror to reach the vocal fold hidden parts. A geometrical study of laser shooting path was conducted for vocal fold anatomical constraints, followed by devising a laser-shooting system conceptual design. Control laws were developed and tested by simulation and validated experimentally on a test bench in a monocular and stereoscopic configuration. Simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed approach.	en_US
