Abstract:
Pharyngoesophageal reconstruction utilizing free jejunal transfer is well established. Extensive resection or debridement for extensive tumor, infection, or radiation may necessitate additional soft-tissue coverage. The authors report a successful reconstruction using a split, free, jejunal transfer to provide simultaneous pharyngoesophageal and soft-tissue coverage.

Enteral Nutrition I: Orogastric and Nasogastric Feeding
Enteral nutrition delivers nutrients directly to the stomach or small intestine through a tube. This method is appropriate for patients who cannot eat but still have a functioning digestive system. It is also beneficial for individuals with swallowing difficulties, anorexia, malabsorption, or those who have undergone gastrointestinal (GI) surgery.

Enteral Nutrition II: Nasointestinal and Gastrostomy Feeding
Enteral nutrition encompasses various methods of delivering nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bypassing traditional oral intake. It is particularly beneficial for patients who cannot eat by mouth but have a functioning digestive system. Key methods include nasointestinal feeding, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy, each suited to different clinical scenarios based on the patient's needs and condition.
