NCT00576134

Brief Summary

Supplement pharyngolaryngeal deficient functions by insertion of a prosthesis with valves in order to allow tracheotomy closing (when applicable) and / or to allow restoration of god swallowing capacity. The secondary objective is to study the concept of a special valves system for the development of an artificial larynx

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Respiratory evaluation

    Day : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 15 - month :1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Nasofibroscopy

    Day : 15 - month : 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36

Interventions

An artificial Larynx composed of a tracheobronxane ® Dumon ST prosthesis and a valves system will be implant under general anesthesia by endoscopy. The 3 first patients will be patients with tracheotomy, in order to allow breathing through this tracheotomy in case of valves dysfunction.
