In a postlaryngectomy patient, tracheoesophageal (TE) speech is considered to be the most effective and preferred method of communication. Previous research has demonstrated that despite an appropriately sized TE prosthesis placement at the time of puncture, there are a portion of patients that require resizing postoperatively. The purpose of this study was to report on the variability of the tracheoesophageal prosthesis length.
