Abstract:
:The surgical management of an infectious and fistulous wound with a pharyngoesophageal tumor is one of the greatest challenges for head and neck and plastic surgeons. The free jejunal transfer has been the standard technique for pharyngoesophageal reconstruction, and the free omental flap has been one of the most reliable methods for reconstructing contaminated wounds. A jejuno-mesenteric flap is suitable for such complicated wounds. Pharyngoesophageal defects are reconstructed by the jejunum, and contaminated and heavily irradiated neck wounds are covered with the mesenteric flaps connected with a revascularized jejunum. The technique described here possesses the advantages of both a free jejunal flap and an omentum flap. Therefore, it is a reliable method for reconstructing the pharyngoesophageal defects of complicated wounds.
