Communication and swallowing outcomes following functional salvage total laryngectomy.
Objectives: Severe laryngeal dysfunction following (chemo)radiotherapy for head and neck cancer may be managed with functional salvage total laryngectomy (FSTL). We investigated communication and swallowing outcomes following FSTL at our tertiary centre.
Methods: All patients treated with FSTL from 2009-2023 were included. Functional Oral Intake Scale score and primary mode of communication were recorded at pre-surgical baseline, point of discharge from inpatient admission, six and 12 months post-surgery.
Results: Ten patients were identified. Pre-surgery all patients were nil by mouth due to severe dysphagia, and 70 per cent were communicating verbally. By 12 months post-surgery, 70 per cent were tolerating full oral intake and 40 per cent were using surgical voice restoration as the primary mode of communication.
Conclusion: Variability in functional outcome must be explained to patients who are offered surgical management of non-functioning larynx, and further work is needed to identify factors that may influence outcome.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology (JLO) is a leading, monthly journal containing original scientific articles and clinical records in otology, rhinology, laryngology and related specialties. Founded in 1887, JLO is absorbing reading for ENT specialists and trainees. The journal has an international outlook with contributions from around the world, relevant to all specialists in this area regardless of the country in which they practise. JLO contains main articles (original, review and historical), case reports and short reports as well as radiology, pathology or oncology in focus, a selection of abstracts, book reviews, letters to the editor, general notes and calendar, operative surgery techniques, and occasional supplements.
