We report a case of a 56 year old male, with a history of a total laryngectomy due to a supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma, who presented with a large retroesophageal perforation after a voice prosthesis placement. After three weeks of endoscopic vacuum therapy, requiring a total of 7 sponges, the closure of the esophageal defect was achieved.
