Sažetak

Laryngeal transplantation is not a new concept. Experiments with reinnervation, revascularisation, immunosupression and preservation started in the late 1950s. The impression after the first successful transplantation was as follows: all expected complications were successfully overcome and the expected failures did not occur. This report will discuss ethical and tehnical considerations of laryngeal transplanatation and risk of cancer reccurrence due to immunosuppression. Laryngeal organ transfer holds the best promise for preserving the quality of life in patients who have lost laryngeal function.
