Use of the extended pectoralis major myocutaneous flap as a wrap-around for mediastinal tracheal repair

Summary: Persistent tracheoesophageal fistulas requiring flap repair of the trachea in the mediastinum are uncommon. A 44-year-old man developed a 5 cm x 2 cm persistent posterior tracheal defect after failed tracheo-esophageal fistula repair. The defect was patch repaired using the de-epithelialize...
