We introduce our newly designed voice restoration technique for patients who have undergone subtotal laryngectomy for laryngeal and pharyngolaryngeal cancer. To study the efficacy of this technique, we analyzed the voice rehabilitation results in 14 patients with laryngeal and pharyngolaryngeal cancer. Voice function was restored in 13 (92.

Introduction: The history of voice rehabilitation following laryngectomy is as long as the history of laryngectomy itself. The multitude of methods which have been employed to reduce the disability associated with the loss of the larynx, illustrate the difficulty of finding an optimal method of reestablishing verbal communication while preserving the ability to breathe and swallow.
Material And Methods: The world literature was reviewed using various Internet and medical search engines and library facilities.

Background: Patients treated by a circular pharyngolaryngectomy for advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma have a poor prognosis and disappointing speech restoration.
Methods: Three carefully selected patients underwent a near-total laryngectomy circular pharyngectomy with jejunal free flap repair and dynamic tracheopharyngeal shunt for treatment of advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma. They received induction chemotherapy and postoperative radiotherapy.

Objectives: Near-total laryngectomy with creation of a speaking shunt is generally considered suitable treatment for most T3 and some T4 laryngopharyngeal cancers. In some patients, poor speech production by the shunt can be problematic and usually means that a shunt lumen is stenotic or too small. Conventional axial computed tomography (CT) of the neck is of little value in predicting the shunt function and the patency of the shunt lumen.
