CRD SUMMARY: The review evaluated use of botulinum toxin for voice restoration after laryngectomy and concluded that 70% to 100% of patients with confirmed pharyngoesophageal segment hypertonicity and/or spasm following laryngectomy had improved voice quality; there were few reported complications. The authors’ conclusions should be interpreted with caution because of review process limitations and limited evidence of uncertain quality.
