[Reestablishment of the vocal function in patients with pharyngospasm after laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer].
Tracheoesophageal bypass was made in 114 patients after laryngectomy for reestablishment of voice. Of them, 17 (14.4%) patients had pharyngospasm which hinders voice recovery. To prevent this complication, the authors propose a special surgical policy which is different for delayed and primary (intraoperative) prosthesis.
