Abstract:
:Voice-limiting pharyngoesophageal spasm presents a challenge to the surgeon who is trying to optimize functional voice outcomes in the laryngectomy patient. Modified closure techniques, adjunctive myotomy, and pharyngeal plexus neurectomy have the ability to improve or prevent pharyngoesophageal spasm. Attempts to maximize vocal outcome should be considered at the original time of laryngectomy and tracheoesophageal voice restoration because salvage treatment can be challenging.
