Abstract
Free jejunal transfer is a useful alternative for the reconstruction of defects of the pharynx and cervical esophagus. We describe 17 patients who received free jejunal grafts between 1980 and 1984 at the Eastern Virginia Medical School. The rationale and indications for the procedure are discussed. We emphasize certain technical considerations and improvements.Keywords
