  • Title: [Anastomoses and sutures in cervical laryngotracheal and pharyngoesophageal surgery].
    Author: Minet M, Lengelé B, Rombaux P, Hamoir M.
    Journal: Ann Chir; 1997; 51(9):961-73. PubMed ID: 10868037.
    Abstract:
    Head and neck anastomosis techniques present common aspects with any type of anastomosis but their localisation at the junction of the respiratory and digestive tracts makes them often delicate to perform. In the present article, we first review the different surgical indications and the laryngeal, tracheal, pharyngeal and oesophageal anastomosis techniques. The main types of flaps also used for this purpose are highlighted. We then review the cases observed during the 5 last years in our department, type and technique of surgery used. In this general review, we illustrate our stand point although aware of the multiple variants favoured by different schools.
