Avoiding anastomotic leakage following esophagogastrostomy

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1983
The most serious complication following esophagectomy and conventional intrathoracic esophagogastrostomy is anastomotic leakage, which contributes to both a high mortality and morbidity postoperatively. The incidence of anastomotic leakage reported in a recent 10 year period ranged from 3% to 18%, with a mean of 4.9%.

Nomogram for predicting the probability of rectal anastomotic re-leakage after stoma closure: a retrospective study

BMC Cancer
Background In this study, we aimed to identify the risk factors in patients with rectal anastomotic re-leakage and develop a prediction model to predict the probability of rectal anastomotic re-leakage after stoma closure. Methods This study was a single-

Mediastinal drainage combined with upper mediastinal re-tunneling vs. mediastinal drainage alone in McKeown esophagectomy of esophageal cancer: a retrospective study

Frontiers in Surgery
BackgroundAlthough mediastinal drainage may lower the risk of anastomotic leakage, the incident rate of anastomotic leakage is still high. The current study aimed to compare the effects of mediastinal drainage combined with upper mediastinal re-tunneling
