title: [The treatment of the sequelae of penetrating injuries to the esophagus].
abstract: On the basis of experience in the treatment of the sequelae of penetrating esophageal injuries in 79 patients the authors divided the patients into 3 groups: those in whom the perforation healed and stricture of the esophagus developed; patients with incurable purulent complications and esophageal fistulas; patients who underwent various operative interventions for acute perforation or its sequelae and needed a reconstructive operation. Recommendations on the choice of adequate therapeutic tactics for each group are given. The method of examination of the patients and the peculiarities of surgical treatment are described in detail. The most frequently encountered complications and the produced results are analysed. It is concluded that patients with sequelae of esophageal perforation must be treated at specialized clinics experienced in the management of this severe condition.
