Alternative technique in secondary tracheoesophageal puncture using flexible endoscope and overtube in patients with difficult post-laryngectomy abnormalities
Background: Functional speech rehabilitation after total laryngectomy remains one of the most challenging issues in head and neck multidisciplinary care. Tracheoesophageal puncture for voice prosthesis insertion performed as a secondary procedure with a rigid esophagoscope and trocar can be technically difficult in certain patients due to post-treatment cervical abnormalities, such as reduced h...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of complications in the immediate postoperative period following primary tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) after salvage laryngectomy. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective. METHODS A retrospective review was done of 26 patients who underwent primary TEP with salvage total laryngectomy. To minimize variables, the patients include...
متن کاملIn-Office Secondary Tracheoesophageal Puncture with Immediate Prosthesis Placement.
T racheoesophageal puncture (TEP) is the preferred method for voice restoration following total laryngectomy. While several techniques for secondary puncture have been described, most require general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Techniques for in-office, unsedated secondary TEP have been developed but are limited due to patient discomfort, inability to maintain direct visualization of th...
متن کاملSimplified technique of tracheoesophageal prosthesis placement at the time of secondary tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP).
OBJECTIVES Secondary tracheoesophageal (TE) puncture standardly involves placement of a catheter at time of TE fistula creation. We explore the feasibility of placement of the prosthesis at the time of TE puncture (TEP) obviating the need for a subsequent procedure to place the prosthesis. We describe the technique and evaluate the success and potential advantages. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective ...
