In the past, we have used island flaps for the successful reconstruction of the trachea (Weerda, 1978, 1979). We have now extended our procedure to allow repair of esophageal stenosis through the use of an island flap which is pedicled on the sternomastoid muscle. A silicone stent is fixed in place with a mattress suture, and is removed after four weeks by endoscope. We have treated one patient by this method: he has thus far done well, and is swallowing satisfactorily one year following surgery.
