Functional laryngectomy(cricohyoidopexy)Two techniques of subtotal functional laryngectomy are described: cricohyoidopexy which is used for supraglottic tumours, and cricohyoidoepiglottopexy for glottic tumours. These operations have been carried out on 61 patients, with tumours too extensive to be managed by the usual partial laryngectomy. The functional results are good, and 94% of the patients have been decannulated.
