[Functional results following laryngectomy (author's transl)].
Vocal rehabilitation and deglutition post laryngectomy were evaluated. 71% of 62 patients had an intelligeable voice, 31% in this group using an electronic device (Servox). Minor problems in deglutition occurred in 35.5%. The functional results suggest definite role for classic laryngectomy even from the aspect of rehabilitation.
