Abstract

Idiopathic fistula between the Gastric tube and the trachea after Laryngo-pharyngo-esophagectomy (LPO) for Carcinoma post cricoid has not been reported in the literature so far. This is the first time we report one such case and its successful repair using Pectoralis Major Muscle Flap (PMMF) and Delto-Pectoral Flap (DPF). The surgical procedure is explained in detail and the various management strategies were discussed.
