Description
Summary:Postoperative complications have been a cardinal problem of reparative operations on the esophagus for many years. Attempts to make an artificial esophagus have frequently ended with anastomotic failure or pyoseptic complications, which is largely associated with significant metabolic disturbances in patients. The adequate preoperative and postoperative parenteral and enteral feeding programs developed at the Russian Surgery Research Center, Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, show their considerable impact on the results of surgical activities. The paper gives a clinical example of the specific features of management of a female patient with an excess neck enteric graft loop after retrosternal enteric esophagoplasty.
