METHOD FOR TEMPORARY RECONSTITUTION OF THE CERVICAL ESOPHAGUS JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY Cochran, J. H., Shinn, J. B. 1980; 13 (2): 107-109
Abstract
A simple method of temporary reconstitution of the cervical esophagus in major head and neck surgery is detailed in a case report. Accompanying diagrams illustrate the mechanics of inserting a number 26 nasopharyngeal airway from the hypopharynx to the esophagus. This arrangement simplifies the management of oral secretions until permanent reconstruction of the cervical esophagus can be accomplished.
