This study introduces the non‐flap tunnel technique (NFTT) as a simplified method for esophagogastrostomy following minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy. Compared with the conventional double‐flap technique, NFTT significantly reduces reconstruction time and the incidence of anastomotic stenosis, while maintaining comparable anti‐reflux outcomes ...

Assessment of graft perfusion and oxygenation for improved outcome in esophageal cancer surgery : protocol for a single-center prospective observational study [PDF]
Introduction: The main cause of anastomotic leakage (AL) is tissue hypoxia, which results from impaired perfusion of the pedicle stomach graft after esophageal reconstruction. Clinical judgment is unreliable in determining graft perfusion.
