Summary

Gastric conduit ischemia or anastomotic breakdown after esophagectomy with cervical esophagogastrostomy often cause severe complications, such as leakage, necrotic organs, and strictures. Thus, the purpose of this study is the safety and efficacy of endoscopic evaluation about reconstructive organs after esophagectomy. The investigators evaluate endoscopic predictions using classifications in acute phase after esophagogastrostomy.

Conditions

  • Esophageal Neoplasms
  • Constriction
  • Anastomotic Leak
  • Ischemia

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Patients after esophagectomy

Endoscopic examinations are performed at 1 and 8 postoperative days. Endoscopic examination is added when abnormal findings are demonstrated.
