TI  - Island sternocleidomastoid myocutaneous flap for posterior pharyngeal wall defect 
      repair after anterior cervical spine surgery.

AB  - Injuries and tumours of the cervical spine represent therapeutic challenges to 
      the treating surgeon due to the complex anatomical relationships and 
      biomechanical features. The anterior cervical midline (ACM) and anterior cervical 
      retropharyngeal (ACR) approaches are effective and safe surgical approaches for 
      certain cervical spine lesions, such as cervical spine neoplasms, atlantoaxial 
      subluxation, and certain odontoid fractures. Posterior pharyngeal wall defects 
      (PPWDs) is one of the most frequently encountered surgical morbidities after 
      anterior cervical spine surgery (ACSS). However, limited information has been 
      published concerning effective approaches for PPWD reconstruction after ACSS. The 
      manuscript aimed to describe a novel application of the island 
      sternocleidomastoid myocutaneous flap (ISMF) in the management of PPWDs after 
      ACSS, including surgery with the ACM approach and ACR approach. From April 2015 
      to November 2019, the clinical data of three patients with PPWDs repaired using 
      the ISMF in Peking university third hospital were retrospectively analysed. The 
      observational indexes are as follows: postoperative survival of the flap, wound 
      healing 2 weeks after surgery, eating and pronunciation function 2 months after 
      surgery. The above indexes of these three cases recovered well. Three patients 
      did not have any persistent PPWD after repair with the ISMF and did not require 
      any further surgical procedures related to the cervical spine.
