Many laryngeal cancer patients suffer loss of laryngeal function, and their ability to speak, swallow and breathe on their own. For almost two decades, Dr. David Lott and his team at Mayo Clinic in Phoenix have been researching laryngeal transplantation. In 2016, his Larynx and Trachea Transplant Program received approval to conduct the first known clinical trial investigating the procedure — a significant step forward to making it scientifically proven safe and effective for everyone. Learn more about the procedure and meet Marty Kedian, one patient who is now getting his voice back after laryngeal transplantation: https://mayocl.in/3xNuVJW

This is awesome!
Outstanding, Dr. Lott and team! The advancements in laryngeal transplantation are truly inspiring and offer so much hope for patients. Additionally, many laryngeal cancer patients could surely benefit from the "BIG4 Health Ingredients" the meal replacement vegan protein powder. They could enjoy a delicious shake while receiving the essential nutrients they need during their recovery process. Keep up the amazing work!
