title: [Translation esophageal flap in the repair of traumatic stenosis of the hypopharynx].
abstract: A surgical technique is proposed which makes use of a cervical esophageal flap to repair a hypopharyngeal stenosis from traumatic intubation. The technique is also applicable for identical stenosis of caustic or traumatic origin, other procedures described in the literature being suitable only for more extensive or more limited lesions. This simply performed technique provides important mucosal gains in the piriform sinus region and a satisfactory hypopharyngeal line.
