Stephenson, Katherine Anna Fagan, Johan Otorhinolaryngology Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references. Pharyngocutaneous fistula is a common complication of total laryngectomy. We hypothesised that perioperative proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment could reduce the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistulae. This prospective placebo-controlled double-blind randomised controlled trial compared PPI treatment (14 days enteral omeprazole) with a placebo in patients undergoing primary total laryngectomy. The incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula was recorded. 2014-07-28T14:30:18Z 2014-07-28T14:30:18Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/2904 eng application/pdf Division of Otorhinolaryngology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
