We report the case of an athlete who, despite facing the challenges of laryngectomy, underwent a comprehensive cardiopulmonary exercise test to assess both his ability to participate in sports and his cardiopulmonary fitness. We not only highlight the individualized approach to sports assessment in a challenging medical context but also emphasize the feasibility of employing cardiopulmonary testing in evaluating subjects in unusual settings.

Abstract
We report the case of an athlete who, despite facing the challenges of laryngectomy, underwent a comprehensive cardiopulmonary exercise test to assess both his ability to participate in sports and his cardiopulmonary fitness. We not only highlight the individualized approach to sports assessment in a challenging medical context but also emphasize the feasibility of employing cardiopulmonary testing in evaluating subjects in unusual settings.
