Abstract:
Filling of extended pharyngoesophagostomas were made in 13 patients operated for advanced laryngeal cancer by means of microsurgical autotransplantation by the forearm radial flap. The latter was created in the form of two cutaneous elements on common fascial base. After transfer of the autotransplant in the recipient's bed, one cutaneous element filled the defect of the laryngopharyngeal and esophageal inner coating, the second filled the defect of the outer coating. This method is reliable, effective, low traumatic, helps to avoid abdominal surgery.
