tracheoplasty = plastic surgery on the trachea


Around this time there are three tracheoplasty patients in our units. The privilege of this particular surgery is that this surgery re-instate those patient's talking ability.
One of those patient is Mr... who was a clerk before he met an accident and had to undergo a trachiostomy surgery. He is only 25 years and imagine what miserable his life could have been with an artificial airway to breath and a mouth which produce no sound at all. As far as I am concerned he is the lukiest among those three. Yes, others are also benefited. But they were suffering from cancers and over 50 years of age.
