title: [Reconstruction following surgical removal of extensive malignant tumors of the mouth and pharynx].
abstract: Large tumors in the oral and hypopharyngeal areas require wide surgical excision with closure either by simple direct means or with replacement of soft tissue and the use of local mucosal flaps, regional skin flaps or visceral transplantation. Five examples have been chosen to explain the proposed methods of treatment with special emphasis on the use of the Bakamjian flap. A detailed description of a combined procedure using part of the colon as an oesophageal replacement is given.
