Abstract

The free jejunum flap is commonly used in the reconstruction of post ablative pharyngooesophageal defects. The sensitivity of jejunal flap to ischaemia is one of the challenges for the flap survival which has a direct impact on the time needed for flap inset and microvascular surgery. The viability of the flap is crucial from the point of maintaining the tubular continuity and preventing an anastomotic leak.
