RESUMO
Objective To estimate the value of applying left heart bypass technique in esophageal carcinoma resection and gastroesophageal reconstruction. Methods The operation was performed under lef t he art bypass. Results Applying left heart bypass during esophagea l carcinoma resection and gastroesophageal reconstruction increased the probabil ity of the resection. The patient lived better and without operative complicatio n. Conclusion In case of esophageal carcinoma with invasion of descending aorta by carcinoma, left heart bypass may increase the probability of the resection and enhance the safety of surgical treatment.
