Free jejunal autografting is increasingly recognized as a safe procedure of pharyngoesophageal reconstruction with good functional results, following circular total pharyngolaryngectomy for extended tumors of the pharynx or larynx. Very often, past history of irradiation and/or surgery of the neck have created severe atheromatous lesions of the cervical vessels. We report the case of a patient with obliteration of the right carotid artery and large recurrence of a tumor of the larynx in which simultaneous arterial venous bypass and free jejunal autograft were performed for pharyngoesophageal reconstruction.
