- Abstract
- Resection of the hypopharynx or cervical esophagus for malignancy is always quite mutilating if reconstruction cannot be achieved with a one-stage procedure. Several techniques have been described, but they are often associated with laryngectomy. In the case reported, a free split jejunal segment transfer allowed reconstruction of the hypopharynx without laryngectomy, as the malignancy did not involve the larynx.
