Pharyngoesophageal Reconstruction Using Free Jejunal Interposition Grafts

Postcricoid Carcinoma: Results after Visceral Transposition and Pattern of Recurrence in 27 Patients

“…This, however, requires spe cial expertise in microvascular techniques and has initially been associated with a high rate of graft failure and morbidity [25], al though recent reports have shown better im mediate results [7], In our series the majority of the recon structions were done by gastric transposi tion. This was without operative mortality; it was associated with relatively few postopera tive complications, and these were of a type that could largely be prevented; it also re sulted in the early resumption of oral intake and in early mobilisation and rehabilitation.…”

Treatment of Colorectal Stricture After Circular Stapling Anastomoses

“…The resected cervical esophagus is commonly reconstructed by the cervical transposition of a jejunal segment with vascular anastomosis (Chen & Tang, 2000;Fisher et al, 1985;Kasai & Nishihira, 1986;Urayama et al, 1997). However, a major complication of this procedure is disruption and/or ischemic injury of the pharyngo-jejunal anastomosis or the transpositioned jejunal segment, leading to severe stricture, which requires surgical treatment (Fisher et al, 1985;Golshani et al, 1999;Mansour et al, 1997).…”

Because this type of stricture is usually severe and has long narrow segment, it is intractable to dilatation and recurrence is common.…”
