Reconstruction of the hypopharynx and cervical esophagus with microvascular jejunal transplant. 1978

D M McKee, and C R Peters

A method of replacement of the hypopharynx and cervical esophagus utilizing a microvascular jejunal transplant has been presented. This has been found to be a clinically acceptable and reliable method of repair. Its primary advantage compared with other methods of reconstruction is that it is a one-stage repair with a lower incidence of postoperative complications.
