Abstract

The evolution of voice and speech parameters following supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SCPL) has been evaluated in a prospective fashion over an 18-month period of time in three patients using the Computerized Speech Lab (from Kay Elemetrics). Preliminary results demonstrate the post-operative instability of voice parameters. Speech parameters remain stable with time. Our data stresses that voice is attained post-operatively even if one arytenoid cartilage is disarticulated at time of resection.
