Abstract
A survey in which 939 ventilation tubes of 8 different patterns were inserted and reviewed (up to a maximum of 2 1/4 years) is analysed. Various factors determining the rate of extrusion are discussed. The Sheehy Collar Button tube remained functional for a longer period than any of the other tubes included in the survey.Mesh:
