Abstract:
A free-prefabricated auricular composite graft was applied in two patients who underwent extended hemilaryngectomy. Good phonatory and respiratory functions were obtained without any significant aspiration. Although this reconstructive method is a two-staged procedure involving microsurgical techniques, we believe that it provides a good physiologic reconstruction of the larynx and trachea.
