Journal ArticleDOI
Head and neck reconstruction with free flaps: a report on 213 cases
Olivier Dassonville,Gilles Poissonnet,Emmanuel Chamorey,Jacques Vallicioni,François Demard,J. Santini,Mayeul Lecoq,S. Converset,P Mahdyoun,Alexandre Bozec +9 more
TL;DR: Microvascular free flaps represent an essential and reliable technique for head neck reconstruction and allow satisfactory functional results and pre-treatment factors influencing these results were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fasciocutaneous free flaps in pharyngolaryngo-oesophageal reconstruction: a critical review of the literature
TL;DR: Following a fasciocutaneous reconstruction of the PLO defect, hospital admission time and ICU stay were shorter and there were fewer perioperative deaths, based on this comprehensive review of the literature with respect to morbidity, mortality and functional outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional outcomes and donor site morbidity following circumferential pharyngoesophageal reconstruction using an anterolateral thigh flap and salivary bypass tube
Dylan J. Murray,Ralph W. Gilbert,Martin Vesely,Christine B. Novak,Sheryl Zaitlin-Gencher,Jonathan R. Clark,Patrick J. Gullane,Peter C. Neligan +7 more
TL;DR: This study reports the experience with fasciocutaneous reconstruction of circumferential pharyngoesophageal defects using an anterolateral thigh flap wrapped around a salivary bypass tube.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fistula analysis after radial forearm free flap reconstruction of hypopharyngeal defects.
Patricio Andrades,Stephen F. Pehler,Christopher F. Baranano,Jeffery S. Magnuson,William R. Carroll,Eben L. Rosenthal +5 more
TL;DR: Evaluation of risk factors and management options for fistula formation after hypopharyngeal reconstruction using the radial forearm free flap reconstruction finds no significant differences between the two methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jejunum free flap in hypopharynx reconstruction: Case series
TL;DR: The prognosis of hypopharyngeal tumours remains poor, but jejunum autografts are being shown to be an excellent choice for the reconstruction of the cervical hypopharyngo-oesophagus offering the patient fast rehabilitation and a reasonable quality of survival.

A two-stage method for pharyngoesophageal reconstruction with a primary pectoral skin flap.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharyngoesophageal reconstruction using a fabricated forearm free flap.
TL;DR: A new microsurgical alternative in reconstruction of the pharynx and cervical esophagus is reported, where a trapezoidal forearm flap is fabricated into an inverted skin tube and placed in the pharyngoesophageal defect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ten years experience with the free jejunal autograft
John J. Coleman,John M. Searles,T. Roderick Hester,Foad Nahal,Vincent N. Zubowicz,Fred M.S. McConnel,Maurice J. Jurkiewicz +6 more
TL;DR: Retrospective analysis by chart review, personal interview, and physical examination identified 88 patients who received 96 jejunal free flaps over a 10 year period and found significant palliation and a high rate of restoration of function are possible with the free jeJunal autograft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Timing of major events of pharyngeal swallowing.
TL;DR: To examine the timing relationships of pharyngeal anatomic motion, pressure generation, and bolus transit in the normal swallow, a new method, manofluorography, is used to correlate these swallowing aspects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstruction Of The Pharynx And Cervical Esophagus Using Free Jejunal Transfer
TL;DR: FJT is a safe, reliable, one-stage method of reconstructing partial and circumferential pharyngoesophageal defects, and swallowing function is restored in 80% or more of patients within an average of 9 to 12 days after surgery.
