[Caustic digestive stenosis involving the hypopharynx. Esophagopharyngoplasty using a right ileocolic graft].
The authors describe an oesophago-laryngoplastic technique using a retrosternal ileocolic graft and involving anterior pharyngotomy above the hyoid bone. The technique was applied to five cases of major destructive lesions of the hypopharynx with fibrotic stenosis, due to severe burns of the upper digestive tract by ingestion of caustic substances. Continuity between the oral cavity and the digestive tract was re-established in all cases.
