Colon bypass with a colon-flap augmentation pharyngoesophagoplasty
نویسندگان
چکیده
Extensive caustic stricture of the upper aero-digestive system (oro- and hypo-pharynx) is a severe injury with limited surgical options. We adopted augmentation of the cicatrized upper aero-digestive tract with colon as our preferred management option. The aim of this report is to describe our initial experience with the technique of colon-flap augmentation pharyngo-esophagoplasty (CFAP) for selected patients with severe pharyngo-esophageal stricture. Between October 2011 and June 2013, three male patients (aged 16, 4 and 18 years respectively) underwent CFAP following extensive pharyngo-esophageal stricture. Postoperative recovery was uneventful in all three cases and all started swallowing within 7-10 days after surgery without significant dysphagia. Colon-flap augmentation pharyngo-esophagoplasty is an effective procedure for reconstruction of the pharynx and the hypopharynx after extensive caustic pharyngoesophageal structure in selected cases.

Restoring the intestinal continuity of an acquired massive cervico-thoracic oesophagus defect is a reconstructive challenge. A case requiring such defect restoration following a failed pedicled colonic interposition bypass graft between the cervical oesophagus and stomach for an intra-thoracic oesophageal perforation is presented. The defect between the oesophagostome at the lower left neck and...

Five female patients ranging in age from 25 to 44 years are reported in whom jejunoileal bypass (three end-to-side and two end-to-end), performed for morbid obesity, was complicated 1 to three years later by symptoms of colonic pseudo-obstruction. In each case, the colon was markedly elongated, dilated, and atonic but with no demonstrable organic obstruction. The cause of this complication is n...
