Many methods have been proposed for reconstruction of the larynx and trachea. An ideal method would utilize tissue which is native to the area, highly viable, convenient to the surgeon, and expendable to the patient. This tissue should be composite, that is, containing both epithelium and skeletal support. This paper describes the use of epiglottis in repair of laryngeal and tracheal defects due to cancer or trauma. The methods of repair include 1) pedicled composite epiglottic flap, 2) free composite epiglottic graft, and 3) pedicled epiglottic mucosal flap. Results in 15 patients are discussed and indicate that use of the epiglottis is an effective method for one-stage laryngotracheal reconstruction.
已经提出了许多用于喉和气管重建的方法。一种理想的方法将利用该区域的天然组织，具有高度的活力，对外科医生来说操作方便，并且对患者无害。这种组织应该是复合的，也就是说，包含上皮和骨骼支撑。本文描述了会厌在修复因癌症或创伤导致的喉和气管缺损中的应用。修复方法包括：1）带蒂复合会厌瓣；2）游离复合会厌移植；3）带蒂会厌黏膜瓣。讨论了15例患者的结果，表明使用会厌是一期喉气管重建的有效方法。
