Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery 2019 August
Tracheoesophageal puncture with voice prosthesis placement is used to restore vocal function after total laryngectomy. However, closure of the fistula is sometimes needed.

Moreover, our procedure allows for a short rehabilitation time for swallowing and a short hospitalization. We describe advantages, pitfalls, and errors to avoid. This technique should not be performed for patients who are irradiated and those with large fistulas.
