The Pharyngoesophageal Segment in Laryngectomees with Non-Functional Voice: Is It All about Spasm?
Author(s): Arenaz Bua B, Rydell R , Westin U and Olsson R
Objective: The aim of the present study was to characterize the pharyngoesophageal segment in non functional tracheoesophageal speakers and to confirm that the patients responded to treatment with decreased pressures, better voice and increased neoglottis vibration.
Methods: Voice perceptual assessment, high-resolution videomanometry of swallowing and phonation and high-speed camera recording during phonation provided information about anatomy and function of the pharyngoesophageal segment before and 1 month after treatment with balloon dilatation and/or botulinum toxin.
