Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients are randomized in two group using minimization
For both groups patients are in dorsal position with classical monitoring.
Preoxygenation
Local of glottis 2mg/kg lidocaine
Ventilation with high frequencies jet ventilation driving pressure between 1.5 and 3 bar, respiratory rate 150/min and report I/T 30%
Surgeons will not be aware of the group to which the patient belongs.
Automatic and continuous recording of vital parameters by Philips monitoring.
In particular, monitoring of neuromuscular function by the NMT module (Acceleromyography by hand with TOF-tube: calibration, supra-maximal stimulation of the ulnar nerve by train-of-four (TOF) every 15 seconds and recording of muscle responses in the protocol of anesthesia according to the recommendations of the literature
Group non curare, anesthesia induction
1. lidocaine 1mg/kg intravenous bolus
2. remifentanyl 0.5 µg/kg/min at the start and 0.15 µg/kg/min during the surgery continuous intravenous
3. propofol mode Target controlled intravenous anaesthesia to adapt according to the depth of anesthesia
4. solumedrol 2mg/kg bolus intravenous
After the disappearance of the ciliary reflex and spontaneous ventilation, an assisted manual ventilation test is performed:
The patient is manually ventilated until it is deep enough. Bi-spectral index <60.
Placement of eye protection. The surgeon exposes the glottal in apnea and evaluates its facility: easy, difficult or inexposable + duration of installation and his vision of vocal cords: o, ¼ post, ½ post, ¾ post or entire. With the installation of the laryngoscope performed, the surgeon places the Mayne-Remacle metal catheter in infraglottic and the high frequency type ventilation starts:
The quality of the operating conditions will be evaluated from the first visualization of the operative field and every 5 minutes in different ways:
- Evaluation of the operating conditions by the surgeon (4 grades excellent, acceptable, to improve and unacceptable).
An unacceptable operating condition in the group will require improvement of analgesia (increase of remifentanyl concentration by 0.15 ± 0.25 µg/kg/min), anesthesia (increase of propofol concentrations) and if conditions remain unacceptable to curarise rocuronium 0.6mg/kg.
- Cough within 5 min: present / absent
- Vocal cords position (abduction, adduction)
- Vocal cords movement during the 5 minutes: yes-no.
- Measurement of the glottal surface via the same optics (0) for all procedures.
Calibrated measurement via the use of a palpator allowing a perfectly objective measurement.
-SpO2 every 5 minutes.
The continuous infusion of remifentanyl is stopped 5 minutes before the end of the procedure. The metal catheter is removed at the end of the surgical procedure and at the same time the propofol administration is stopped. Assisted manual ventilation is used to reduce end tidal CO2 <45 and allow the patient to recover his spontaneous rythm.

Comparator / control treatment
Curare group:
1. lidocaine 1mg/kg intravenous bolus
2. remifentanyl 0.5 µg/kg/min at the start and 0.15 µg/kg/min during the surgery continuous intravenous
3. propofol mode target controlled intravenous anaesthesia to adapt according to the depth of anesthesia
4. solumedrol 2mg/kg bolus intravenous
After the disappearance of the ciliary reflex and spontaneous ventilation, an assisted manual ventilation test is performed:
5. Rocuronium 0,6 mg/kg bolus intravenous and other bolus in order to keep the patient in deep neuromuscular block ( post tetanic count 1-5) throughout the surgical procedure
The patient is manually ventilated until it is deep enough. Bi-spectral index <60 and obtention of a deep neuromuscular block.
Placement of eye protection. The surgeon exposes the glottal in apnea and evaluates its facility: easy, difficult or inexposable + duration of installation and his vision of vocal cords: o, ¼ post, ½ post, ¾ post or entire.

The quality of the operating conditions will be evaluated from the first visualization of the operative field and every 5 minutes in different ways:
- Evaluation of the operating conditions by the surgeon (3 grades excellent, to improve and unacceptable).
An unacceptable operating condition require to act at the level of analgesia (increase the concentration of remifentanyl 0.25µg/kg/min) and anesthesia (increase the concentrations of propofol).
- Cough within 5 min: present / absent
- Vocal cords position (abduction, adduction)
- Vocal cords movement during the 5 minutes: yes-no.
- Measurement of the glottal surface via the same optics (0) for all procedures.
Calibrated measurement via the use of a palpator allowing a perfectly objective measurement.
-SpO2 every 5 minutes.
At the end of surgery, the continuous infusion of remifentanyl is stopped 5 minutes before the end of the procedure. The metal catheter is removed at the end of the surgical procedure and at the same time the continuous infusion of propofol is stopped. The patient is decurarized with Sugamadex 4mg / Kg to obtain a train of four ratio> 90%. Assisted manual ventilation is used to reduce end tidal CO2 <45 and allow the patient to recover his spontaneous rythm.

Statistical methods / analysis
A minimum of 66 patients was estimated by G*Power 3.1.9.2 software to be required for the trial with an alpha error of 0.05, a power of 0.80 and a one-sided approach, assuming that the primary outcome of changing group from no curare to curare were 20% and 0% respectively. We used a group sequential approach and plan to perform one interim analysis after completion of 50% patients using Pocock boundaries, that is a total of two analyses including the final one, at 0.0294 significance levels (Pocock, 1977 and 1982). Outcomes will be compared using chi square or Fisher exact tests for categorical variables, and Wilcoxon rank sum tests for numerical ones.

Summary
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to observe if a deep neuromuscular block improves the surgical conditions during laryngeal microsurgery with high frequencies jet ventilation and if this block facilitates the glottic exposure both in terms of the speed of exposure and the area visualized. The use of the laser during microsurgery requires a total absence of movement in such a context we want to show if there is an interest in deep neuromuscular block.
