title: [Esophago-jejunal anastomosis after total gastrectomy with circular suturing: using a personal method].
abstract: The authors describe a personal technique of oesophagus-jejunum anastomosis post total gastrectomy for gastric cancer, inspired by the Oesophagel transection technique. This consists of introducing into the oesophagus the detachable head of the circular stapler by gastrotomy before sectioning the oesophagus and removing the stomach and subsequently carrying out anastomosis as usual. The principal advantage of this technique is in respect to the oesophageal margins to be anastomosed which remain immune to ischemic lesions, lacerations and retractions of the mucosa, with a minor incidence of anastomotic leakage.
