[Esophagus replacement by an isoperistaltic gastric tube (author's transl)]. 1981

K D Lindecken, and U Kunath, and R Janson

In 20 patients the esophagus was replaced by an isoperistaltic gastric tube. Cervical esophagogastrostomy was performed. Postoperatively motility, histology, gastric secretion, and emptying time of the gastric tube were investigated. The esophageal replacement showed residual motility, pyloric motility, atrophic gastritis, decreased basal and stimulated secretion and normal emptying time, except in two patients. There were no essential drawbacks in function of the intrathoracic gastric tube. Patients with esophagectomy are comparable to patients with partial gastrectomy.

D014629	Vagotomy, Proximal Gastric	Vagal denervation of that part of the STOMACH lined with acid-secreting mucosa (GASTRIC MUCOSA) containing the GASTRIC PARIETAL CELLS. Since the procedure leaves the vagal branches to the antrum and PYLORUS intact, it circumvents gastric drainage required with truncal vagotomy techniques.
