ABSTRACT
This investigation was to analyze surgical treatment data of 210 patients undergoing mid- upper-esophagectomy and esophagogastroplasty through esophagus bed during June 1996 and June 2006 to evaluate the efficacy of this alternative strategy.No death was reported.Fistula occurred in 5 patients (2.4%) and cured by suture and dressing change.Thirteen patients (6.2%) developed stricture and received endoscopic balloon ductal dilatation.Of them,9 patients completely recovered,2 improved,and 2 showed no response.These findings suggest that our surgical procedure is simple,fits for physiological function,and results in fewer pest-operative complications and lower mortality,thus could be an ideal treatment option for mid-upper esophageal carcinoma.
