    Abstract:
    A personal technique for cricoid reconstructive surgery is presented and discussed. A transfert of a free living scapular flap by microvascular anastomoses is used for reconstructing half cricoid resection. We can with this technique increase the number of partial laryngectomy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma. Two techniques are possible: The half anterior laryngectomy conserves only the half posterior cricoid and the twice arytenoids. The half lateral laryngectomy conserves one arytenoid and a half cricoid.
