Detecting the Changes of Swallowing Function in Tongue Cancer Patients Receiving Mandibular-lip Split or Pull-through Resection Surgeries

April 26, 2021 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital

Using High Resolution Impedance Manometry (HRIM) Combined With Videofluoroscopic Swallow Study (VFSS) to Investigate the Changes of Swallowing Function in Tongue Cancer Patients Receiving Mandibular-lip Split or Pull-through Resection Surgeries

The evidence of swallowing changes in tongue cancer patients receiving mandibular-lip split or pull-through resection surgeries is still limited. This study aimed to investigated the swallowing changes in these patients by using the videofluoroscopy (VFSS) and high resolution impedance manometry (HRIM).

Detailed Description

Objective: to investigated the swallowing changes in these patients receiving mandibular-lip split or pull-through resection surgeries by using the videofluoroscopy (VFSS) and high resolution impedance manometry (HRIM).

Methods: 1. patients are fulfilled elective mandibular-lip split or pull-through resection surgeries; 2. they all received VFSS and HRIM exmination before surgery. 3. they were randomized into two groups (mandibular-lip split surgery or pull-through resection surgeries).

4. after receiving the surgery, the patients were followed the swallowing function at postoperative 1, 3, and 6 months.

Anticipating results: the swallowing function at pull-through resection surgery has faster recovery than mandibular lip split methods.
