Transoral robotic total laryngopharyngectomy and free jejunal flap reconstruction for hypopharyngeal cancer

For locally advanced tumours involving the post-cricoid region and the cervical esophagus, total laryngo-pharyngectomy is required and the subsequent circumferential pharyngeal defect is preferentially reconstructed using microvascular free flaps [1]. The current report describes the surgical protocol utilized by the author to perform total laryngo-pharyngectomy and free jejunal flap reconstruction using the TORS approach.
