Abstract

This paper describes a case of reconstructive laryngectomy in a patient with epidermoid carcinoma of the glottis. Reconstruction of the skeletal laryngeal architecture was carried out by implanting homologous cartilages, whilst the glottis was reconstructed with sternohyoid muscle. Laryngeal function was restored within 30 days of the operation.
