[Early rehabilitation of laryngectomized patients with the electrolarynx?].
Seventy-three patients were asked to fill in a questionnaire to determine whether a laryngectomee can be rehabilitated better with the oesophageal voice or with the vibrator voice. This evaluation showed no significant difference between these two methods of voice rehabilitation. Patients rehabilitated with the vibrator learn oesophageal voice in addition without undue difficulties. Therefore, we recommend voice rehabilitation of the laryngectomee by both the above methods.
