title: [Reconstructive plastic surgery of the esophagus in children].
abstract: The article presents the authors' experiences with reconstructive-plastic operations of the esophagus in children. The esophagoplasty was performed in 60 patients with congenital and acquired diseases. Among the congenital diseases are esophageal atresia, short esophagus and Barrett's esophagus, the acquired diseases include postburn scarry injuries. The optimum method of creation of the artificial esophagus are described. Of great significance are thought to be angiosurgical and microsurgical methods of cutting out the intestinal transplants. Cases of free autotransplantation of the intestinal segments for the substitution of the injured esophagus are described. Positive results were obtained in most cases.
