Electroglottographic studies of staffieri neoglottis

Abstract
Among several methods of surgical restoration of voice which were introduced in the last two decades, the one of Staffieri has so far been most successful, though perfection with this technique still remains to be achieved. Question has always been raised as to the nature of function of the neoglottis in the production of voice in these patients. An attempt has been made to study this function with the aid of electroglottography. Results show that the neoglottis functions in some ways similar to the normal human glottis, and as the source of vibrations in these laryngectomized subjects.
