[Surgical treatment of sequelae of chemical burns of the upper segments of the digestive tract]. 1988

T I Shraer, and A M Ponomerev

An experience with the treatment of 210 patients with consequences of associated chemical burns of the esophagus and stomach (174 of them were operated on the stomach at early terms after burn for impassability) allowed recommendation of operation with the least risk--shunting interventions on the stomach and esophagus. Ante-thoracal lateral jejunostomy is thought to be indicated to patients with massive injuries of the stomach or complications of gastrostomy.
