cricopharyngeal myotomy

Circulopharyngeal myotomy can be used to attenuate or remove the high pressure zone of the UES. The pharyngeal myotomy began in 1951. This procedure is the only effective treatment for primary pharyngeal muscle relaxation and open abnormalities and pharyngeal diverticulum. Once diagnosed, early surgery should be performed. Treatment of diseases: laryngeal cancer Indication For brain and neuromuscular problems, primary throat muscle dysfunction, pharyngeal diverticulum, etc.; head and neck cancer dissection can also be used for pharyngeal muscle incision. Some secondary patients, those who do not have effective drugs or who are not treated with drugs are also surgical indications. Contraindications Because gastroesophageal reflux and anti-feed can cause fatal lung inhalation, the contraindications for this operation are obvious gastroesophageal reflux and anti-feeding. Preoperative preparation Antibiotics are routinely used before surgery. Surgical procedure The surgical procedure consisted of a myotomy of the pharyngeal and esophageal mucosa from the distal end of the pharynx across the pharyngeal muscle down to the neck esophagus for a length of about 5 cm. complication The pharynx is blocked.
