Abstract
Abstract: The authors discuss their experience in the surgical treatment of caustic stenosis in the upper gastrointestinal tract. They present operative solutions using isoperistaltic transverse colonic segment in oesophageal stenosis caused by gastric outlet obstruction, or when these two presented together. Further indications for the above were bronchial or tracheo-oesophageal fistulas and oesophageal perforation. Late adaptation of the colonic grafts were measured by radiokinematography and histochemistry. The overall morbidity was 4.9%. Postoperative salivary fistulas closed spontaneously. Late postoperative complications (13.5%) were treated successfully. The multihaustral motility of the graft prevented the reflux, while the altered mucopolysaccharides of the colonic mucosa prevented the ulcer formation. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(16): 613–618.
