The authors report their experience on cervical anastomosis dehiscence in patients who had total esophagectomy and esophagogastroplasty for esophageal neoplasms. They describe, accurately and step by step, the plastic reconstructive technique (by using a vascularized transposed cutaneous flap), used to treat a symptomatic cervical fistula which occurred in 3 of the 24 patients who had esophagectomy and cervical-esophagogastroplasty. This kind of treatment led to complete healing of the fistulas, without clinical and radiological signs of fistula recurrence in all the patients treated.

Abstract

The authors report their experience on cervical anastomosis dehiscence in patients who had total esophagectomy and esophagogastroplasty for esophageal neoplasms. They describe, accurately and step by step, the plastic reconstructive technique (by using a vascularized transposed cutaneous flap), used to treat a symptomatic cervical fistula which occurred in 3 of the 24 patients who had esophagectomy and cervical-esophagogastroplasty. This kind of treatment led to complete healing of the fistulas, without clinical and radiological signs of fistula recurrence in all the patients treated.
