[Examination of the correlation between lung function and voice quality after glottoplasty or Blom-Singer-puncture (author's transl)].
The correlation between lung function and the quality of oesophageal speech was investigated in 36 patients who had undergone laryngectomy with glottoplasty. It was found that this correlation did not depend on any important lung function parameters. Lung tests were carried out on 10 patients before and after laryngectomy. No changes in lung function could be found that may have been directly attributed to a laryngectomy. This means that restrictive or obstructive lung disturbances do not contra-indicate glottoplasty or a Blom-Singer-puncture.
