Has anyone here had "positive closure" done or know anything about it vs a flap beingdone? I posted directly to braziliangirl on page 9 (she had this method) but she has not been around for a while to possibly answer.
This was proposed to me at Sloan Kettering as whatthey would do. Now that I know surgery is what is MOST likely to happen this appeals to me more than a flap.One major curiosity is speach recovery and aspiration possibilities being reduced.
Thanks
