  • Title: Reconstruction with free bowel autografts after pharyngoesophageal or laryngopharyngoesophageal resection.
    Author: Flynn MB, Banis J, Acland R.
    Journal: Am J Surg; 1989 Oct; 158(4):333-6. PubMed ID: 2802038.
    Abstract:
    Reliability has become a foremost requirement in pharyngoesophageal reconstruction because of the disastrous consequences after a failure. Our institution has achieved a 97 percent success rate using the free bowel autograft. We believe that this represents a significant accomplishment and designates the free bowel autograft as the reconstructive method of choice after pharyngoesophageal resection.
