title: [Clinical aspects of esophageal speech (author's transl)].
abstract: The quality of esophageal voice and speech after laryngectomy depends on several factors. Negative influences are produced by irradiation, resection of the hyoid bone and radical neck dissection. The factors important in esophageal speech were analyzed, with consideration given to the functional morphology of the pseudoglottis and the reconstructed hypopharynx. Phoniatric, laryngologic and radiologic aspects are considered.
