INTRODUCTION: A novel technique for tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) closure is described in which the sternohyoid muscles are rotated and interposed between the tracheal and esophageal walls. The results of this technique are reported, following CARE guidelines, and compared with those obtained using the sternocleidomastoid flap. A literature review on the techniques previously described for TEP closure in irradiated patients is presented.
CASE SERIES: The novel technique was performed in six patients in whom the infrahyoid muscles were preserved during total laryngectomy. All received adjuvant radiotherapy. Successful closure was achieved in three cases; in one case a small leak was noted after initial closure and was successfully managed with simple sutures; and the other two failures occurred in patients with diabetes. The sternocleidomastoid flap was performed in five patients (only one with previous radiation) and success was achieved in two patients. In another patient a micro-fistular orifice appeared six months after the operation.
DISCUSSION: The sternohyoid muscles pose a low morbidity alternative to be considered in surgical TEP closure. Patient selection is a key factor to surgical success, and this technique should be reserved for small to moderate size fistulas and in the absence of multiple impaired wound healing conditions.
