  • Prosthesis with foldable flange
    Publication number: 20040204759
    Abstract: Insertion of a flange on a tubular prosthesis such as a voice prosthesis through a body opening such as a tracheoesophageal fistula is facilitated by forming a thinner section on the flange that preferentially folds as the flange passes through the fistula. Retention of the flange in a gel cap is improved by forming a foldable flap extension on a cylindrical flange. A tubular tool for insertion of a tubular voice prosthesis through a fistula is also disclosed.
