Abstract
The most common forms of surgical intervention carried out at the National Cancer Institute of Cairo for patients initially seen with hypopharyngeal carcinoma are (1) laryngopharyngectomy and pharyngeal repair using the pectoralis major myocutaneous flap (PMMF) and (2) extrapleural total pharyngolaryngoesopha‐gectomy with gastric transposition (GT) and pharyngogastrostomy. The advantages and disadvantages with both techniques will be discussed on the basis of results of 69 patients with different tumor distributions over a 4‐year period.Keywords
