| Popis: | From January 2003 to June 2006, 6 patients with leakage of the cervical esophagogastrostomy after esophagectomy and gastric pull-up underwent endoscopic stenting using the self-expandable covered tracheal type device. Anastomotic healing was satisfactory. Stent extraction was performed after an average interval of 91 days. Initial stent migration occurred in 2 patients and post-extraction stenosis developed in 3 patients. Insertion of a self-expandable covered metal tracheal stent represents a safe approach resulting in immediate closure and subsequent healing of cervical anastomotic leakage. |
