Objective:
To investigate the repair of cervical esophageal perforation using cervical muscle flap and provide a new material of esophageal perforation repair.
Method:
To report 12 cases of cervical esophageal perforation among which 8 cases was repaired using cervical muscle flap.
Result:
100% success rate of surgical repair was observed with all 12 cases. No case of recurrence or esophageal stricture occurred by follow-up six months to 10 years.
Conclusion:
Traumatic cervical esophageal perforation easily had serious complications, with high mortality rates and the prognosis was poor. Early intervention of surgical repair could improve the survival rate of patients.
