[Disorders of the pharyngeal stage of deglutition after classical and extended supraglottic laryngectomies. Computerized tomographic analysis of x-ray images].
In 20 patients with laryngeal cancers, of both sexes and aged from 17 to 76 years, a partly classical or extended supraglottic laryngectomy was performed. The accomplished roentgenocinematographic analysis dealt with the disorders of the pharyngeal phase of deglutition act (RTGC). Next, by selecting characteristic schemas of frames for individual phases of deglutition, a computerized topokinetic analysis was carried out (CTA). The deglutition disorders were estimated in relation to the spared anatomical structures, formation of glosso-laryngeal recesses after this type of operations as well as leakage of contrast medium into the trachea.
