摘要
This study evaluated the nature and extent of problems faced by patients following discharge from hospital following laryngectomy. Semi-structured interviews investigated the practical and psychological concerns of a cohort of laryngectomy patients in a district general hospital. A number of simple practical measures can be employed to reduce early hospital re-admission following laryngectomy. Psychological morbidity is an important cause of low quality of life following laryngectomy. Formal psychological treatment could be of benefit in the management of these patients.
