title: [Anastomosis suture technic and complications of esophagocoloplasty in corrosive lesions].
abstract: For the reconstruction of the esophagus due to a corrosive stenosis a colon transplant is usually used. In all esophagocoloplastics three anastomosis are necessary: anastomosis that continues the alimentary tract, anastomosis of the distal part of transplant with the stomach or duodenum, and the most important proximal anastomosis of the esophagus (or pharynx) with the transplant. In the period of 29 years (from January 1, 1964 until December 31, 1993) on the Institute for digestive diseases in Belgrade 250 esophagocoloplastics were performed with 750 anastomosis, in the patients with corrosive stenosis of the esophagus. All the anastomosis are sewn in two layers with the interrupted or continuous stitch, except for the anastomosis with the pharynx where due to a structure of the wall a one layer continuous stitch was only possible. From 750 anastomosis in 30 patients or 4% an anastomotic leakage occurred and in only 4 patients or 0.5% it ended lethaly. Stenosis of the anastomosis occurred in 18 patients or 2.4%.
