[Personal experience in reconstructive subtotal laryngectomy using a sliding epiglottoplasty]. 1984

M Hamoir, and M Remacle, and P Dejonckere, and J Van den Eeckhaut

Seven near total reconstructive laryngectomies with epiglottoplasty have been performed by the members of the Saint-Luc ( UCL ) Department of Otolaryngology. The technical aspects are described and the indications and limitations of this procedure are discussed. There is no postoperative complications and the functional results are excellent. The authors think that this procedure must find a place for surgical treatment of laryngeal neoplasms.
