Esophagoplasty with an autogenous tubed gastric flap. 1979

T Yamato, and Y Hamanaka, and S Hirata, and K Sakai

As an esophageal substitute, a tubed gastric flap 2.5 cm in inner diameter and 38 cm in length, was constructed from the gastric wall along the greater curvature; a pedicle was attached to the gastric antrum, and its oral stump was brought up into the left supraclavicular fossa through a retrosternal tunnel to perform an esophagogastrostomy. Anastomotic breakdown occurred in only three of fifty cases in which this procedure was used.
