Abstract
Using pedicled left colon for reconstruction of the pharynx following resection for carcinoma, we were able to restore normal swallowing within three weeks in five of 11 patients with extensive disease. Since only one of these has been a long term survivor this represents very useful palliation as it is of paramount importance in these patients with short survival times to restore normal swallowing as early as possible.
