Abstract
Abstract: Complications of head and neck cancers and their treatment can lead to dysphagia. Two fifty-seven-year-old male cases, one with laryngeal cancer and one with tongue cancer, were included in the study. After 16 weeks of swallowing rehabilitation, positive changes were observed in the physical parameters, quality of life, and nutritional status of the patients. In conclusion, patients with head and neck cancer should be evaluated by physiotherapists for dysphagia. The participation and motivation of the patients in the rehabilitation program are highly effective in the outcome of the treatment.
