ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the use of free jejunal flap in reconstruction for circumferential defect after tumor resection of hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Retrospective review of 51 patients who underwent circumferential pharyngoesophageal reconstruction with free jejunal flap after tumor ablation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In 51 patients, 5 had flap failure and the flap success rate was 90% (46/51). Forty-five patients had oral intake after operation excluding one who had anastomosis stenosis and 5 who had flap failure. The 1-year and 3-year survival rate was 62% and 48% respectively. Positive surgical marginal status and external invasion including thyroid gland, carotid artery, skin and pre-vertebral area were indicators for bad prognosis. Except 5 patients who had flap failure, one of which died from mediastinal infection, no other severe complications occurred.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Patients reconstructed with free jejunal flap after resection of hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal cancer had low mortality and few complications. Those without positive surgical margin and external invasion including thyroid gland, carotid artery, skin and pre-vertebral area had higher survival rate. Most of them had good quality of life. The choice of free jejunal flap for reconstruction of hypopharyngoesophageal defect was appropriate in selected patients who had guarantee of negative surgical margin and no external invasion.</p>
