Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The repair and reconstruction of laryngeal structure and function play a crucial role in partial laryngectomy,and the repairing materials and methods have been developed rapidly in recent years.OBJECTIVE:To explore the present application of tissue transplantation on the repair and functional reconstruction after partial laryngectomy,and provide evidences for the selection of repairing materials and reconstructive techniques for laryngeal function.RETRIEVAL STRATEGY:A computer-based search of PubMed database was undertaken to identify the articles of functional reconstruction after partial laryngectomy published from January 1997 to July 2007,with the keywords of "laryngectomy,laryngeal carcinoma/cancer,reconstruction" in English.Simultaneously,Chinese Journal Full-text Database was searched for the relevant articles published between January 2000 and July 2007 with the keywords of "partial laryngectomy,laryngeal carcinoma,repair/reconstruction" in Chinese.Totally 160 relevant articles was retrieved,of which 69 articles were English and 91 articles Chinese.Articles on repair or reconstruction after partial laryngectomy were selected.After the primary filtration,fulltexts of the English articles were checked,and articles on review and with repetitive content were excluded.The articles on clinical research,which were issued in authorized journals,were selected.At last,totally 31 articles were included for review.LITERATURE EVALUTION:Among 31 included articles,16 articles were English and 15 articles Chinese.DATA SYNTHESIS:Functional reconstruction is the key point in course of partial laryngectomy.Technique on repairing postoperative larynx have made a progress,and autologous tissues,such as myofascial flap,flap of strap muscles,myocutaneous flap of neck fascial lata and epiglottis,are extensively used for larynx,which have got good effect.The study of the application of tissue engineering and other variant materials after partial laryngectomy is going on.CONCLUSION:With rapid development of partial laryngectomy,all kinds of repairing materials and reconstruction techniques are used.Repairing postoperative larynx has no fixed mode.It is a very important topic to choose suitable repairing material and reconstruction technique according to different factors such as laryngeal carcinoma type,lesion degree and excision scope,so as to recover the vocalization,respiratory and deglutition function,and raise the patients' survival rate and life quality.
