Abstract:
Objective To evaluate a surgical approach and anastomosis for the treatment of carcinoma of the gastric cardia. Methods Transabdominal intramediastinal esophagogastric anastomosis covered by sero-muscular flap of gastricwall for cardial carcinoma in 187 cases. Results The method reached the satisfactory surgical result in terms of tumor free cut edge on esophagus end of the resected samples. And the morbidity rate was 5.8%. Conclusion The technique enables lymphadenectomy within the lower mediastinum and a sufficiently long enough resection of esophagus. Transabdominal incision of the crus dextrum of the diaphragm makes a clear operative field for the purpose of radical operation for carcinoma of the gastric cardia. The anastomosis effectively prevents anastomotic leakage. This procedure is indicated for cardial carcinoma cases in which the esophaged involvement is within 2cm.
