[Histological findings after transabdominal ligation-resection of the esophagus ad modum boerema (author's transl)].
The esophagus was histologically studied in ten patients, who died after transabdominal ligation-resection of the esophagus ad modum Boerema because of bleeding esophageal varices. The patients had survived the operation for various periods of time. The questioning was, if with this operation with a higher incidence of parietal leakage following mediastinitis and peritonitis has to be calculated. We could not confirm that hypothesis. On the contrary we recognized at the level of the ligation simulataneously degenerated muscles fibres and a regeneration of the esophageal wall by fibrous tissue compensation.
