The Art and Science of Esophageal Anastomosis
, 2012 The esophageal anastomosis is prone to leak and development of stricture. Tumor recurrence at the anastomosis is also a difficult problem to treat. Many aspects of the esophageal anastomosis are controversial. The choice of the site of the anastomosis is
