Abstract: The use of colonic interposition in esophageal replacement after esophagectomy for cancer results in similar morbidity, mortality, and long-term outcome compared with gastric transposition.

“…Our postsurgical complication rates of graft necrosis (6.2%), anastomotic leak (12.5%), and anastomotic stricture (18.7%) were similar to those previously reported (Table 3) (1,3,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) Of these studies, five (including ours) routinely used preoperative angiography in all or a defined select group of patients, two did not use routine preoperative angiography, and six did not report whether preoperative angiography was used. The rate of graft necrosis ranged from 3% to 5% in those who did not routinely perform preoperative angiography; 3% to 9.6% in those who did perform angiography in all or a predefined select group of patients; and 0% to 9% in those who did not report if they did or did not perform angiography.…”

“…Due to its simple preparation, reliable blood supply, as well as the decreased anastomosis required, the stomach is the primary choice for upper gastrointestinal reconstruction (10,11). If the exploratory surgery in patients with gastric tumors reveals that the tumor is small, but close to the pyloric ring, surgery to excise the tumor alone may leave residual tumor cells and pyloric stenosis.…”
