Hello. The throat head is primarily responsible for closing the air tube during swallowing. When it is removed, an artificial breathing opening must be created on the neck, the tracheostoma. Only in this way can someone continue to swallow without a throat head without food being able to enter the air tube.

Without a larynx it is not possible to swallow because the larynx plays an important role in the swallowing process. It is important to use medical assistance to find alternative methods to absorb food and liquids.
