Abstract:
The Authors present a case of hypopharyngeal tumor in which digestive continuity was assured by a jejunal autotransplant. Tumoral exeresis and jejunal preparation were carried out at the same time by two surgical teams. The use of microsurgical techniques assures the revascularization of the neck transplant by implementing the superior thyroid artery and the internal jugular vein. Digestive anastomoses complete the operation.
