[Rehabilitation of a voice function by means of prosthetic repair of voice after removal of the larynx for cancer].

The paper presents treatment results in 223 patients who have undergone tracheoesophageal anastomosis with prosthetic repair of voice (PRV) after laryngectomy for cancer. PRV was made both simultaneously with laryngectomy (n=126) and after it (n=97). The procedure, complications and their prevention are described. The authors support the idea of the "gold standard"--voice repair for each laryngectomized patient. Tracheoesophageal anastomosis opens great prospects: loud intelligible speech recovered in 91.9% patients.
