Abstract
Re-establishment of effective communication following laryngopharyngo esophagectomy and gastric transposition requires thorough knowledge and flexibility of introducing the entire range of communication options. This study describes our experience with eleven patients of gastric transposition who attended intensive speech therapy and developed gastric speech using different method of speech producing and attaining various levels of proficiency. Application of digital pressure is one of the most effective technique for production of satisfactory and intelligible voice in gastric transposition cases who fail to develop speech by inhalation method.
