History

edit

In 1869 the first artificial voice box (larynx) was built by Czermak.[1] In 1873 Theodor Billroth made a total laryngectomy (in steps) and implanted an artificial voice box.[1][2] A new development, using modern mateerials took place in France by Debry [3]

Inserting or replacing by medical professionals

edit

Like the Blom-Singer® Advantage® Indwelling Voice Prosthesis it is only inserted or replaced by medical professionals, such as speech pathologists or physicians.. This could be understood, as if other prosthesises could be inserted or replaced not only by medical professionals, This is not the case. Avernarius (talk) 09:57, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

       As explained within the next section 'Non-indwelling and indwelling voice prostheses' some prostheses are replaced by users themselves.94.126.214.38 (talk) 15:45, 16 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
