Abstract
Hypopharynx repair following resection of a pyriform sinus carcinoma may be accomplished primarily or involve a more extensive procedure, such as a free intestinal graft. Described herein is a laryngeal flap which may be used to repair a hypopharyngeal defect when a strip of mucosa, too narrow for a primary repair, is left. This method has been used successfully in 4 patients and has saved these patients from more extensive repairs.
