Abstract
The rate of PCF among the salvage laryngectomy group with previous radiation did not differ from historical data. AlloDerm® can however, provide a simple alternative for repair in radiation patients where flap cannot be performed for pharyngeal reconstruction. In non-radiated patients, AlloDerm® augmentation may have a protective effect on fistula formation.
