A comparative study of the repair of surgical defects of the hypopharynx with the pedicled thoracoacromial artery perforator and supraclavicular artery island flap

The TAAP flap demonstrated significant advantages over the SCAIF in hypopharyngeal reconstruction, including a longer pedicle and better preservation of shoulder function and aesthetic outcomes, despite a longer operative time. The choice of flap should be selected based on patient needs and surgeon experience.
