Case reportAdenocarcinoma in a 40-Year-Old Colonic Interposition Treated With Ivor Lewis Esophagectomy and Esophagogastric Anastomosis
Section snippets
Comment
Colonic interposition is a technical, challenging operation for esophageal replacement that has become a secondary option to gastric pull-up, followed in preference by jejunal graft, Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy, or creation of a permanent salivary fistula with feeding jejunostomy. In a large series of 393 patients undergoing consecutive esophagectomies, Briel and colleagues [1] compared complications of gastric pull-up and colonic interposition, reporting a statistically similar incidence of

2016, Asian Journal of SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The current case emphasizes the possibility of the development of a neoplasia when a colonic conduit is used. For patients with a colonic interposition graft, screening of the colonic graft 2 years after the esophageal surgery has been suggested.10 Subsequent endoscopic surveillance is recommended on a 2- to 3-yearly basis owing to the possibility of a development of a polyp or a colonic malignancy.
