Sumario:Attempts to analyze respiratory function of the laryngectomized patient with tests such as spirometry and plethysmography have been described in the literature, highlighting however substantial difficulties. Oscillometry, through the forced oscillation technique (FOT), measures the mechanical properties of the respiratory system minimizing the problems related to the patient's lack of compliance. This methodology has never been applied to these patients and therefore represents a new perspective in the analysis of respiratory function.
