title: [The functional status of esophago-gastric transition segment in patients with burns of esophagus].
abstract: We examined 57 patients with burns of esophagus at the age of 18-76 years old. We analyzed the symptoms and medical history of the patients, used contrast X-ray examination, endoscopic imaging with biopsy of esophagogastric crossing, the test for gastroesophageal reflux, gastric intubation and pH-metry. The advanced gastroesophageal reflux was registered 1.5-2 years after surgery, then the function of gastroesophageal sphincter recovered. The information about reflux is essential before the intervention is conducted, in order to correct it during operation.
