The only doctor who was highly confident that he could rebuild the cricoid cartilage that the Chondrosarcoma had pushed into my airway and paralyzed a vocal cord. Dr. Moore had an unconventional procedure to keep all of my functionality, breathing, eating, and talking. A few of the world class doctors we saw recommended a total laryngectamy was the only way to remove the entire tumor. I strongly recommend you go see Dr. Moore. Please share that you reached out to me. Alternatively, I can call him and introduce you. Under any circumstances you need at least 3 to 4 opinions and they will all have a different approach. Let me know if I can provide you with anything else. God Speed!
