BACKGROUND Closure of salvage laryngectomy defects with vascularized tissue remains controversial. METHODS We evaluate outcomes in patients who required repair of a fistula after attempted primary closure of salvage laryngectomy defect and assess risk factors for persistent fistula. Between 2001 and 2010, 20 patients were treated for pharyngocutaneous fistulae after primary closure of a salva...
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Performing a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients can be challenging because of the presence of trismus, pharyngeal obstruction by tumor, and pharyngoesophageal strictures or fistula. Pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) is a major postoperative concern in patients submitted to total laryngectomy (TL). In the medical literature t...
Introduction: Pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) is the most common complication after total laryngectomy. Its incidence is extremely variable, with values ranging from 3% and 65%. The management of this problem considerably increases the length and the cost of hospitalization. The aim of this study is to analyze the incidence, predisposing factors, and outcome of PCF in patients undergoing total...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Salvage laryngectomy after failed organ preservation often has a high complication rate, pharyngocutaneous fistulas being the most common. These fistulas increase morbidity, prolong hospitalization, and potentially delay adjuvant treatment. Fistula rates in the literature range from 3% to 65%. Use of the pectoralis flap to prevent fistula formation has been adopted as a co...
BACKGROUND Given the results of the Department of Veterans Affairs Laryngeal Cancer Study Group investigations in the 1990s and the subsequent publication of the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group 91-11 (RTOG 91-11) study in 2003, treatment for advanced staged laryngeal carcinoma has focused on organ preservation strategies involving chemotherapy and radiation. Analysis of these studies reveals t...
