The material consists of 160 cases (88 after CHP and 72 after CHEP). A 5-year survival rate was obtained in over 71% of cases in all material. Decannulation was possible in 126 (79%) patients. Feeding tube removal before 4 weeks after operation was performed in 139 (87%) cases. In subjective assessment, all patients had social efficient speech.
