Abstract
To date, this is the largest study to evaluate the use of NTI in patients undergoing oral cavity reconstruction with FTT. Our results suggest that in the appropriate institutional setting, most patients can be safely managed with NTI. This approach results in a decreased hospital LOS and ICU LOS and an earlier resumption of oral intake with less need for gastrostomy.
