ABSTRACT
Devascularization surgery for portal hypertension, indicated in selected patients, is considered safe. A 15-year-old boy with cirrhosis underwent elective modified Sugiura's devascularization procedure for secondary prophylaxis of variceal bleeding. He developed esophago-gastric dissociation, which was successfully managed with emergency feeding jejunostomy and restoration of gut continuity three months later.
