Management of the Embedded Tracheoesophageal Prosthesis: Retrograde Removal and Replacement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To describe the retrograde removal of a tracheoesophageal (TE) prosthesis embedded in the common wall between the trachea and esophagus with preservation of the original tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) tract with subsequent placement of new tracheoesophageal prosthesis for voice restoration.
METHODS: The Blom-Singer TEP Set (InHealth Technologies, Carpinteria, CA) was used to facilitate this procedure. The coated wire leader cable was threaded through the small opening in the posterior tracheal wall and into the lumen of the old TE prosthesis. The wire was pulled through the mouth in retrograde fashion - bringing the old TE prosthesis out with it and dilating the existing TEP tract. A new prosthesis was then placed over the end of the wire and returned through the stoma, delivering the prosthesis through the TE tract and into the stoma.
RESULTS: Safe, voice restoration with avoidance of need for multiple procedures.
CONCLUSION: Removal of an embedded prosthesis and simultaneous replacement of a new prosthesis was safely and efficiently achieved using a retrograde technique which maintained the patency of the prior TE tract and restored voice.
