Abstract
For total laryngectomy patients with tortuous tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) tracts, anterograde placement of the voice prosthesis can be challenging. This article describes an updated and straightforward technique for in-office retrograde placement of the voice prosthesis in patients with such challenging TEP tracts.
