  • Title: [Subtotal esophagus resection and stomach tube transposition in laryngectomized patients without loss of esophageal speech].
    Author: Lörken M, Jansen M, Schumpelick V.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1999 Mar; 70(3):308-9. PubMed ID: 10230547.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 71-year-old patient who had a laryngectomy 16 years ago because of a laryngeal carcinoma and achieved voice restoration by esophageal speech. Now a squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus had been diagnosed and was treated with a subtotal esophagectomy, stomach transposition, and collar anastomosis. Postoperatively, the patient remained esophageal speech without loss of quality.
