Supracricoid laryngectomies: long-term oncological and functional results.

abstract：:The effects of two simulated hearing impairments (presbyacusis) on speech perception were investigated in two groups of normally hearing subjects (30 and 48 subjects, respectively). Eight patients with presbyacusis with similar hearing impairment to those in the latter simulation served as the clinical material. Word ...
