Personalized Treatment Plan:

Dr. Singhavi collaborates with palliative teams to understand the patient’s goals—emphasizing speech, swallowing comfort, and ease of care. Under local or general anesthesia, he selects a tracheal ring or pharyngeal site that offers maximal relief with minimal disturbance to adjacent tissues. The stoma is fashioned with generous skin‐flap margins to prevent contraction, and tubes are secured to facilitate gentle suctioning and humidification. Postoperative training includes stoma care, secretion management, and specialized speech‐language support, using speaking valves if appropriate.

Benefits :

By creating a stable airway outlet, Dr. Singhavi’s palliative stomas dramatically reduce dyspnea, stridor, and recurrent aspiration, enhancing patient comfort. The deliberate stoma design minimizes granulation and infection risk, reducing maintenance burden for both patients and caregivers. Speaking valves allow many patients to regain partial vocalization, preserving communication and social interaction. Overall, this compassionate intervention prioritizes dignity, relief of distressing symptoms, and improved daily living in advanced, incurable disease scenarios.
