Abstract：
:Evaluation of postoperative swallowing ability in thirty-eight patients having had partial laryngectomy indicates that there are marked differences in the degree of dysphagia among individuals with similar surgical defects. This variation in swallowing disability, however, appears to have definable limits. Rehabilitation is possible for many patients disabled by postoperative dysphagia. A transoral surgical technic for reconstruction of the obliterated pyriform sinus is described.
