  • Title: Speech outcomes after laryngeal cancer management.
    Author: Simpson CB, Postma GN, Stone RE, Ossoff RH.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Clin North Am; 1997 Apr; 30(2):189-205. PubMed ID: 9052664.
    Abstract:
    As our ability to treat laryngeal cancer and prolong the lives of our patients improves, we must place increasing importance on maintaining the best voice possible in every case. Treatment options for laryngeal cancer continue to expand, and it is important that otolaryngologists stay well informed; not only concerning the local control and disease-free survival associated with each new treatment, but also the expected voice result. This article describes the voice and speech outcomes that are associated with various treatments for laryngeal cancer. In addition, comparisons of the expected voice results for different therapeutic modalities are examined.
