Surgical treatment of late dysfunction of an esophagocoloplasty.
Replacement of the esophagus by colon interposition often has late complications, frequently due to technical defects. We report the case of a patient who presented 12 years after surgery with complex dysfunctions of a colonic interposition, including cervical and retrosternal strictures associated with a redundant portion of the colon graft. The interest of this case lies in its combination of many late complications of this surgery in a single person together with the simplicity of the treatment.
