Detecting the Changes of Swallowing Function in Oral Cancer Patients

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Swallowing Function
• Interventions: Procedure: pull through group; Procedure: mandibular-lip split group

• Registration Number: NCT04862637
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

The evidence of swallowing changes in tongue cancer patients is still limited. This study aimed to investigated the swallowing changes in these patients by using the videofluoroscopy (VFSS) and high resolution impedance manometry (HRIM).

Detailed Description

Objective: to investigated the swallowing changes in tongue cancer patients by using the videofluoroscopy (VFSS) and high resolution impedance manometry (HRIM).

Methods: 1. patients are fulfilled tongue cancer diagnosis; 2.they will undergo VFSS and HRIM examinations before or after surgery if they experience discomfort while swallowing.
