Partial laryngectomy: analysis of associated swallowing disorders
American Journal of Surgery
|October 1, 1978
Abstract:
Evaluation of postoperative swallowing ability in thirty-eight patients having had partial laryngectomy indicates that there are marked differences in the degree of dysphagia among individuals with similar surgical defects. This variation in swallowing disability, however, appears to have definable limits. Rehabilitation is possible for many patients disabled by postoperative dysphagia. A transoral surgical technic for reconstruction of the obliterated pyriform sinus is described.

01:21Larynx
The human larynx, often referred to as the voice box, is an intricate organ located in the neck. It serves as a pathway for air to enter the lungs during respiration and is an essential component of voice production.
Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids, corniculates, and...

01:30Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation V: Advanced Airway Management Techniques
Airway management is essential in emergency and surgical medicine, ensuring ventilation and oxygenation in patients who cannot maintain their own airway. Clinicians use a range of techniques and devices to secure the airway, depending on the patient’s condition and the clinical context. Key methods include endotracheal intubation, rapid sequence intubation (RSI), supraglottic airway devices, and advanced visualization aids. In cases where these approaches fail, surgical airway interventions are...
