Esophagogastrostomy encircled by seromuscular gastric wall flap / 临床外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of esophagogastroplasty of esophagogastrostomy in preventing anastomotic leakage,stricture and reflux esophagitis after resection of lower esophageal or cardiac carcinoma.Methods 273 cases of lower esophageal cardiac carcinoma were randomly divided into 2 groupsThe treatment group(145 cases) was treated by esophagogastrostomy encircled by sero muscular gastric wall flap while the control group(128 cases) was performed with esophagogastrostomy only.Results No anastomotic leakage or stricture was observed in treatment group,with 10 cases of reflux esophgitis only.In control group,anastomotic leakage,stricture and reflux esophagitis were 9(7 0%),5(3 9%),and 21(17 1%) respectively.Conclusions The esophagogastroplasty of esophagogastrostomy can completely avoid anastomotic leakage,stricture and significantly reduce reflux esophagitis after resection of lower esophageal or cardiac carcinoma.
