Summary

This study looks at how men and women differ in voice quality after having their voice box removed (total laryngectomy) and using a special voice prosthesis. Researchers will ask 12 participants to complete surveys and voice tests. The goal is to understand if women have poorer speech outcomes, which could help improve future care.
