ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Cricopharyngeal myotomy and laryngeal framework surgery can improve swallowing function in patients with severe dysphagia. We developed a novel surgical technique for severe dysphagia associated with pharyngolaryngeal paralysis and cricopharyngeal dysfunction, performed under local anesthesia, and investigated its effectiveness.METHODS:
We included nine patients who underwent cricopharyngeal muscle-origin transection with laryngeal framework surgery through a horizontal skin incision under local anesthesia.CONCLUSIONS:
All patients demonstrated significant improvement in the Food Intake LEVEL Scale without complications. Thus, this surgical technique may serve as a useful and less invasive treatment option for patients with severe dysphagia.Palavras-chave
