Abstract
Background: in total laryngectomy there occurs the transfer of the nasal airflow definitely to the tracheostoma, which could cause a decrease in the perception of smell and taste. There have been recently developed methods of intervention in order to improve performance in laryngectomized smell and taste, although few studies have investigated this issue.
Purpose: this study aimed to systematically review the evidence of how the techniques involved in the rehabilitation of the functions of smell and taste have an effect on individuals with total laryngectomy.
Conclusion: in this review all the selected studies demonstrated effective use of rehabilitation techniques for the role of olfaction in laryngectomized. As for taste, there were no proposals in order to intervene directly in this function.

Resumo
Tema: na laringectomia total ocorre a transferência do fluxo aéreo nasal definitivamente ao traqueostoma, podendo provocar diminuição na percepção do olfato e do paladar. Recentemente tem sido desenvolvidos métodos de intervenção a fim de melhorar a performance olfativa e gustativa em laringectomizados, embora sejam escassos os estudos que abordam esse tema.
Objetivo: rever de forma sistemática as evidências de como as técnicas envolvidas na reabilitação das funções do olfato e do paladar tem efeito em indivíduos laringectomizados totais.
Conclusão: nesta revisão todos os estudos selecionados demonstraram eficácia na utilização de técnicas de reabilitação para a função do olfato em laringectomizados totais. Para o paladar não houve propostas para intervir diretamente nesta função.
