Long term outcome of a subcutaneous colonic interposition after pharyngo-laryngectomy for strictures of the larynx and hypopharynx resulting from caustic ingestion: A case report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionCaustic agents, also called corrosive agents, could be acids or alkali in nature. If ingested, these agents can injure any part of the aerodigestive tree. Extent of injury depends on the type, concentration, duration of exposure and volume of caustic agent ingested. Serious complications after caustic agent ingestion can occur both in the short term such as hollow viscus perforation and death and in the long term such as stricture formation causing obstruction and lifetime risk of development of carcinoma. PRESENTATION OF A CASE: This is a case of a 25-year-old female who ingested an unknown substance resulting to a severe stricture of the larynx, hypopharynx, esophagus and pyloroantral region of the stomach. Six months after her tracheostomy and tube jejunostomy, she sought further medical attention in our institution due to inability to swallow food and saliva. She underwent pharyngolaryngectomy (PL) with the strictured esophagus and stomach left in-situ due to extensive adhesions. The subcutaneous colonic interposition reestablished the alimentary continuity by providing enough length for tension-free anastomosis and a more direct route for cervical anastomosis. DISCUSSION: Stricture formation is one of the most challenging late complication of corrosive injury. It results from scar formation in response to inflammation of the aerodigestive tract. Key factors in managing caustic strictures include safety of strictured segment resection, choice of replacement organ for reconstruction and route of conduit.
conclusionTiming of surgery and proper selection the surgical procedure for complications of caustic ingestion can result in excellent long term outcomes.
