[Radiologic findings following supraglottic and total laryngectomy].
The treatment of carcinoma of the larynx has recently been greatly improved with the development of supraglottic and total laryngectomy. This has also led to a high five year survival rate. The normal postoperative radiological appearances are presented together with the spectrum of relevant radiological investigations and their indications. The most frequently seen postoperative complications and findings in patients with dysphagia are described with special reference to pharyngograms and cineradiography. The morphology of the vibrating segment after laryngectomy in patients who do not develop effective alaryngeal speech is demonstrated.
