Re-establishment of effective communication following laryngopharyngo esophagectomy and gastric transposition requires thorough knowledge and flexibility of introducing the entire range of communication options. This study describes our experience with eleven patients of gastric transposition who attended intensive speech therapy and developed gastric speech using different method of speech producing and attaining various levels of proficiency. Application of digital pressure is one of the most effective technique for production of satisfactory and intelligible voice in gastric transposition cases who fail to develop speech by inhalation method.

: Functional gastric stenosis, a consequence of sleeve gastrectomy, is defined as a rotation of the gastric tube along its longitudinal axis. It is brought on by gastric twisting without the anatomical constriction of the gastric lumen. During endoscopic examination, the staple line is deviated with a clockwise rotation, and the stenosis requires additional endoscopic manipulations for its transposition.

Objective: For over a century, circumferential pharyngoesophageal junction reconstruction posed significant surgical challenges. This review aims to provide a narrative history of pharyngoesophageal junction reconstruction from early surgical innovations to the advent of modern free-flap procedures.
Methods: The review encompasses three segments: (1) local and/or locoregional flaps, (2) visceral transposition flaps, and (3) free-tissue transfer, focusing on the interplay between pharyngoesophageal junction reconstruction and prevalent surgical trends.
