A new conservation method for unilateral glottal cancer with significant subglottal extension consists of a hemicricolaryngectomy and subsequent reconstruction of the laryngeal defect with a transferable patch of revascularized cervical trachea. In order to restore the three crucial functions of the larynx - airway patency, speech, and swallowing--the reconstructed larynx should resemble a situation with one paralyzed and one intact vocal fold at the glottal level. We hypothesize that this result can be achieved when the tracheal patch meets a typical surgical constraint--the so-called paramedian position at the glottal level - and when the patch is rigidly applied. This hypothesis was tested by developing and using an image-based planning system in a number of situations.
