150th Anniversary of Total Laryngectomy

For 150 years, the total laryngectomy has preserved its place as the primary surgical solution for patients suffering of advanced larynx cancer or as a salvage procedure for patients with recurrent disease after organ preservation treatment.

This conference is celebrating the 150th anniversary of Total Laryngectomy in honor of Prof. Dr. Theodor Billroth (1829-1894) by addressing development of new surgical techniques, major achievements in postlaryngectomy speech and pulmonary rehabilitation, future perspectives of organ preservation therapies and possible benefits of silent speech research.
