Coloplasty and free intestinal transplants in the treatment of extensive cancers of the pharyngo-oesophageal junction
1989
The authors report their surgical experiences with 55 extensive tumours of the pharyngoesophageal junction. Thirty-three of these cases were managed by circular pharyngolaryngectomy, total oesophagectomy with stripping and left coloplasty, and 22 were treated with circular pharyngolaryngectomy with free intestinal transplants. A comparative study of the post-operative courses of the patients and their oncological and functional outcomes shows the advantages, disadvantages and indications of these two techniques.
