A pull-through method for open surgical resections of OPC has recently been introduced. We improved on this method by eliminating the need for subsequent free-flap reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>16 patients with lateral wall OPC underwent pull-through resections. After resection, we used the digastric muscle, stylohyoid muscles, submandibular gland and the surrounding tissues to block the neck and oral cavity and to avoid reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This novel technique was performed without major complications or morbidities.
