Abstract
Tracheoesophageal anastomosis is a preventive surgical procedure that can be administered for the purpose of improving the quality of life (QOL) for those with continuous dysphagia. Lindeman's tracheoesophageal anastomosis is advantageous in that it facilitates the confirmation of recovery via videofluoroscopy and it is reversible operation.We report our experience with 67-year-old male patient who had been suffering with hypopharyngeal cancer at the T2N1 stage located from the left piriform sinus to the posterior cricoid. Lindeman's tracheoesophageal anastomosis was performed for continuous dysphagia after a partial pharyngo-laryngectomy. This method succeeded in the recovery of natural phonation. Voice was produced by means of false vocal folds.
