OBJECTIVE: To seek a new method for reconstructing bilateral intemrnal jugular vein invaded by metastasis lymph node in advanced @entity5 @entity1 . METHODS: A combination of microvascular @entity254 and longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty was performed to reconstruct internal jugular vein. We resected the part of the bilateral internal jugular vein of advanced @entity5 @entity1 invaded by metastasis lymph node and used the external carotid vein to reconstruct the internal jugular vein. A part of the vessel wall of the internal jugular vein could also be resected to reconstruct the vein. Longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty could slowly narrow the lumen diameter of the internal jugular vein. Thus, difference in @entity254 diameter should be avoided because it generates eddy currents and subsequently causes @entity4461 . A total of five advanced cases of @entity957 were involved in this study. We performed bilateral radical neck dissection on all @entity1 to reconstruct the internal jugular vein and observed their postoperative conditions. RESULTS: Postopera-tive follow-up of 5 months to 19 months was performed on all @entity1 . Doppler or CT angiography and related tests showed no @entity715 . No @entity1 with @entity4 , @entity4 , @entity2657 , and high intracranial pressure or other serious complications caused by blocked venous blood was observed. The one-year survival rate of five @entity1 was 60% (3/5). CONCLUSION: Microvascular @entity254 combined with longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty is a new method for reconstructing internal jugular vein. This method was proved successful and clinically feasible.
