BACKGROUND: Some @entity1 with @entity9576 ( @entity9576 ) require surgical interventions such as tracheostomy and aspiration prevention. Few studies have investigated the postoperative clinical course of @entity9576 @entity1 . The aim of this study was to determine a management strategy for @entity1282 and @entity1576 in @entity9576 . METHODS: From 2001 to 2014, 18 @entity9576 @entity1 (13 males and 5 females, 52-76 years) underwent tracheostomy (TR, n = 11) or laryngeal closure (LC, n = 12). Five @entity1 underwent LC following TR. Vocal fold impairment, the degree of @entity1282 and pre/post-operative oral ingestion, and postoperative survival time were evaluated retrospectively. Swallowing function was assessed using the penetration aspiration scale (PAS). RESULTS: TR was performed due to @entity1576 in seven @entity1 and due to @entity1282 in four @entity1 . PAS scores ranged 1-8 in TR @entity1 and 7-8 in LC @entity1 . Seven of 11 @entity1 who underwent TR displayed worsened PAS scores, and no @entity1 displayed improved PAS scores following TR. All @entity1 who underwent LC regained complete or partial oral intake after surgery. There were no significant differences in postoperative survival time between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Considering the impacts of TR and LC on survival time, postoperative feeding and swallowing, LC is a good option for treating @entity9576 @entity1 with @entity1282 .
