Gastric transposition & deltopectoral flap for peristomal recurrence following total laryngectomy--a case report.
Stomal recurrence following laryngectomy presents a difficult problem with an incidence of 8.3-15%. Wide excision of the recurrence with mediastinal dissection, although the operation of choice,m is technically demanding and has a high morbidity and mortality. We recommend a technically easier procedure for reconstruction after palliative excision and present a case to illustrate it.
