“…This particular problem can be mitigated by endoscopic harvest of the jejunum that minimizes the morbidity traditionally associated with open harvest of the flap. 65 Besides restoring pharyngoesophageal continuity, there remains the problem of speech reproduction. Most pharyngoesophagectomy patients are rehabilitated using a tracheoesophageal puncture (TEP) technique with a voice prosthesis.…”
