The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

We describe the use of a silicone septal button in the management of a patient who developed a large tracheo-oesophageal fistula following primary puncture as part of a total laryngectomy. The button was easily inserted, well tolerated and prevented leakage of solids into the trachea, allowing the patient to eat.
