Inpatients undergoing esophagectomy after total pharyngolaryngectomy (TPL), surgical reconstruction poses significant challenges due to dense adhesions and altered cervical anatomy. The McKeown procedure requires cervical manipulation, demanding careful preservation of the tracheal stoma and free jejunal graft blood supply. In contrast, the Ivor Lewis procedure eliminates the need for cervical maneuver but necessitates an intrathoracic anastomosis between the gastric conduit and the remnant esophagus. This raises concerns regarding potential ischemia of the remnant esophagus, particularly after prior TPL, in which proximal blood supply may be compromised. We report a case of successful robot-assisted Ivor Lewis esophagectomy after TPL, in which intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging was used to confirm sufficient blood supply in the remnant esophagus and to ensure a safe anastomosis.  \nCASE PRESENTATION: A 73-year-old man with a history ofTPL for hypopharyngeal cancer, endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric and esophageal cancer, and colon resection for descending colon cancer was diagnosed with a new esophageal squamous cell carcinoma during routine surveillance endoscopy. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed no lymph node or distant metastasis (cT1bN0M0, Stage I) . Considering his prior TPL and the absence of cervical lymph node involvement, a robot-assisted Ivor Lewis esophagectomy with intrathoracic gastric conduit reconstruction was planned without cervical manipulation. Intraoperative ICG fluorescence imaging demonstrated adequate perfusion of the remnant esophagus (about 45 mm), confirming its viability and allowing safe esophagogastric anastomosis. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on POD 12. Histopathological examination revealed moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma invading the lamina propria mucosa (pT1aN0M0, Stage IA) . The patient remains disease-free 2 years postoperatively.  \nCONCLUSIONS: Ivor Lewis esophagectomy can be safely performed after TPL when careful intraoperative evaluation of remnant esophageal perfusion is undertaken. ICG fluorescence imaging provides a simple and reliable method for assessing blood supply, helping to prevent ischemic  \nDepartment of Digestive Surgery, Niigata City General Hospital, Niigata, Niigata, Japan  \nCorresponding author: Shirou Kuwabara.
