Functional Outcomes after Subtotal/Total Glossectomy with Microsurgical Reconstruction: A Multicenter Prospective Observational Study in Japan
This study provides useful data for estimating individual risk factors associated with feeding tube dependence, oral intake level, and speech function before tongue reconstruction. These results can help surgeons and patients make informed decisions and optimize the functional outcomes of tongue reconstruction.
