No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Delayed emptying of the gastric tube after esophagectomy is a frequent and durable problem. No treatment is currently available. It can be hypothesized that incomplete relaxation of the pyloric sphincter may be a significant contributing factor. Pneumatic dilatation may therefore be a potentially effective treatment.

Conditions

  • Esophagectomy
  • No Signs of Cancer Recurrence
  • Delayed Gastric Emptying
