Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the value of laryngeal functional reconstruction with pedunculated musculocutaneous flap of platysma after partial laryngectomy.
METHOD:Fifty-four cases with glottic carcinoma were operated by partial or enlarged partial laryngectomy, and reconstructed laryngeal function with pedunculated musculocutaneous flap of platysma.
RESULT:All the cases regained the swallow, vocalization and breath. The rate of extubation was 100%, and the 5-year survival rate was 92.59%.
CONCLUSION:Application of pedunculated musculocutaneous flap of platysma to reconstruct laryngeal function is one of the effective method after partial laryngectomy.
