The authors submit their own experience with pharyngogastric anastomosis in patients where on account of circumferential cancer of the oesophagus and hypopharynx laryngopharyngooesophagectomy had to be performed. For the anastomosis a tubular flap of the greater curvature of the stomach was used which was pulled through the posterior mediastinum and sutured with the mucosa and musculature of the residual pharynx and the preserved upper half of the epiglottis. The operation is pretentious and requires satisfactory cardiopulmonary function of the patient. A disadvantage of the operation is substantial loss of gastric function, compensated by the patients by a therapeutic diet and medicinal substitution of the gastric chemism. An obvious advantage of the operation is the radical character of the oncological procedure and rapid rehabilitation of swallowing which was restored in the authors' patients on the 8th to 14th day.
