Abstract

Leakage of oesophagojejunostomy is a severe complication of total gastrectomy. We present a technique allowing preoperative preservation of a defective oesophagojejunostomy: this technique involves closure of the cervical esophagus with stapler, double-lumen transanastomotic tube, mediastinal drainage and feeding jejunostomy.
