344 Sutured anastomoses
https://t.me/med1917
A row of interrupted horizontal mattress sutures are
5
placed between the esophagus and the conduit. The suture is a 3/0 absorbable monofilament and is placed sero­muscularly in the conduit and in the longitudinal and circu­lar muscle layers of the esophagus. These are positioned 3–4 mm apart and taking about 3 mm of the esophagus or stomach wall. The sutures are held in hemostats prior to the conduit being parachuted or snugged into position and the sutures gently tied. The lateral sutures are left long and held in hemostats acting as marker stays.
5
The back wall of the anastomosis is now completed with
6
full thickness interrupted sutures at approximately 3 mm intervals. These are continued across the anterior wall, knots lying intra- or extraluminally. The initial stays are removed as encountered. The importance of clearly identify­ing and including the submucosa in each bite is stressed, as this is the strongest layer of the serosal deficient esophagus.

The anterior layer of horizontal mattress sutures can be

finished using the lateral marker stays to help guide the
position of the lateral sutures.
In an attempt to reduce tension on the anastomosis, but­tressing sutures from the conduit to the diaphragm or medi­astinal pleura are occasionally inserted.
CONTINUOUS SINGLE LAYER – INTRATHORACIC ANASTOMOSIS
The preparation is the same and again stay sutures are placed in the four quadrants of the esophagus. The gastro­tomy can be made full thickness initially, but it is our prefer­ence to make it through the seromuscular layer only at this stage. This prevents bleeding and spillage of gastric con­tents.

The back wall of the anastomosis is started in the midline

or at the left extremity with a double-ended needled 3/0 monofilament suture. The bite is either full thickness through the stomach wall, or through the seromuscular layer, and full thickness through the esophagus again taking great care to incorporate the submucosa. The knot is thrown intra- or extra-luminally and mid length giving an equal span of suture for each needle.

https://t.me/med1917
With the gastric seromuscular layer incised, the back and
9
side walls are completed with an over-and-over running stitch from “inside”–out on the stomach and outside–in on the esophagus. Once the posterior aspect of the anastomosis is finished the suture is brought “inside” out of the stomach. If the seromuscular suture on stomach has been used the mucosa is now divided with scissors, taking care to suck away all gastric content. The anterior suture is then inserted, again in an over-and-over fashion passing from outside–in on the stomach and from inside–out on the esophagus. When the posterior suture is reached, the two sutures are tied securely.
An antireflux anastomosis
INTRODUCTION
Rudolf Nissen in 1938 undertook a resection of the gastro­esophageal junction in a young woman, and following an end­to-side esophagogastrostomy he buried the anastomosis to guard against leakage. He found subsequently that the patient developed no reflux and it was this case which led to the anti­reflux operation popularly known as a Nissen fundoplication.
9
Given that reflux can be a major detrimental factor in qual­ity of life after an esophagectomy, it is perhaps surprising that Nissen’s example has not been followed.
The performance of a modified fundoplication requires just two prerequisites. First that approximately 3–4 cm of intrathoracic esophagus is present and second that the gastric conduit can reach up or nearly up to the apex of the thorax.

POSTOPERATIVE CARE
It is important to realize that these modified fundoplications can act just as effectively as a one-way valve as fundoplica­tions carried out for reflux disease. Therefore we always use a nasogastric tube to keep the stomach decompressed until day 7 or 8 postoperatively, when a contrast swallow is performed to make sure that the stomach is emptying adequately (and coincidentally to check for an anastomotic leak).
OUTCOME
Clinical anastomotic leak rates of less than 5% are readily achievable using these techniques. Integrating an antireflux anastomosis into our clinical practice has neither affected the anastomotic leak rate nor the anastomotic stricture rate (25%). However, it has significantly reduced symptoms of severe post-operative reflux from 63% to 12%. We stress the basic surgical principles of producing a well vascularized, ten­sion free anastomosis with minimal surgical trauma, but, this must be combined with intensive post-operative care to help maintain tissue oxygenation.

Stapling techniques for anastomoses of the esophagus
GLYN G. JAMIESON MS, MD, FRACS, FRCS, FACS
Dorothy Mortlock Professor of Surgery, University of Adelaide; Professor and Chairman, Department of Surgery, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
PRINCIPLES AND JUSTIFICATION
Controlled trials have not established that stapled anasto­moses are either better or worse than manually sutured anas­tomoses. Such trials, however, have usually been performed in units expert in the techniques of esophageal surgery. In the hands of less expert surgeons the stapled anastomosis is quite likely to be safer, because the anastomosis is standardized and probably has a better blood supply than a manually con­structed anastomosis.
Attention to detail is still of paramount importance,
however, and the overriding principles of lack of tension and
provision of the best possible blood supply apply for stapled anastomoses just as for manually constructed anastomoses.
TECHNIQUE
The esophagus receives its blood supply through intramural vascular anastomoses, so that long segments of it can be mobilized without jeopardizing its blood supply. Therefore, 3–5 cm of the esophagus proximal to where it is to be divided should be mobilized.
If an automatic purse-string device is used, it is applied
1
before dividing the esophagus. If a nasogastric tube lies in the esophagus, it is withdrawn to a point several centime­ters above the site of division. The purse-string device is placed in position and closed. A heavy tie is then placed around the esophagus distal to the purse-string device to pre­vent spillage of esophageal contents.

The esophagus is now divided flush with the purse-string
2
device, which is opened and removed. The ends of the purse-string suture are retrieved and held in a pair of artery forceps. Esophageal contents in the proximal esophagus are suctioned out. There are two points at which the purse-string may not be held optimally close to the esophagus. These points are at either side where the anterior and posterior rows of staples meet. The author secures the furthest point by plac­ing a single over-and-over suture to incorporate the purse­string. The nearest point is where the purse-string will be tied, and as it lies directly under vision this is not usually a prob­lem. If necessary, an over-and-over suture can be placed here, after the first throw of the knot on the purse-string has been made.

2
The esophagus contracts and retracts after being divided, and six stay sutures can be used to give excellent control
3
of the mouth of the esophagus. These stay sutures are placed taking a 5- to 7-mm bite of the full thickness of the esophageal wall, and they usually pass through the esophageal wall incorporating the purse-string suture.
Some surgeons prefer to insert the purse-string suture
https://t.me/med1917
4
manually. To do this, a 0 polypropylene or monofila­ment nylon suture on a round-bodied needle is used. The suture begins on the anterior wall of the esophagus, passing from outside to inside, and then is continued around the esophagus with an over-and-over running suture taking bites of 4–5 mm in depth and 4–5 mm apart. When one-third of the circumference of the esophagus has been traversed, the loop of the over-and-over suture can be held by a pair of Allis or Babcock forceps, as this will later be used as a stay suture. Similarly, when two-thirds of the circumference has been dealt with, another pair of Allis or Babcock forceps can be used to hold a second loop. The final suture is brought to the outside of the esophagus, and both ends of the purse-string suture and the two loop stay sutures keep the mouth of the esophagus open.
The esophagus is now dilated with either metal dilators or a large Foley catheter with a 25-mL balloon, which the author has found to be very effective. The catheter is lubricated and then inserted well into the esophagus. The balloon is slowly but firmly inflated, and the catheter is pulled down the esoph­agus. The bag of the balloon tends to bring a lot of mucus with it, and so a suction device should be held at the mouth of the esophagus as the catheter is withdrawn.

An appropriately sized staple head is chosen (usually
5
25 mm or 28 mm). Holding the six stay sutures (or the Allis or Babcock forceps) facilitates the placement of the anvil within the esophagus. Once it is in position, the purse string is tied snugly against the shaft of the anvil. If the surgeon is unhappy with the purse-string suture at this stage, a further purse string can be placed with the anvil in position.
352 Stapling techniques for anastomoses of the esophagus
https://t.me/med1917
The main stapler is introduced into the organ being
6
joined to the esophagus, and the shaft is brought through
the wall of the organ.
The anvil is clicked into position on the main shaft of the stapler. The two parts of the stapler are closed, with care taken that no extraneous tissue is caught between the esophagus and the organ to which it is being joined. Closure is com­pleted. A final check is made to see that the tissue is free all the way around the staple head, and the instrument is fired.
The parts of the head are separated by turning the appro­priate part of the stapler, and the whole device is removed by using a gently rocking motion while at the same time main­taining a pulling traction on the instrument and supporting the anastomosis with the opposite hand. Once the instrument has been removed, the rings of stapled tissue are inspected to make sure that they are complete. If there is any doubt about the anastomosis, saline can be instilled into the esophagus above the anastomosis to check that the join is watertight.
It is debatable if anything further should be done. If a gas­troesophageal anastomosis has been constructed in the chest, the author constructs the anastomosis on the anterior wall of the stomach so that the remaining posterior wall can be brought up above the anastomosis to form a fundoplication. Such a fundoplication may prevent the troublesome compli­cation of reflux.

Use of the stomach as an esophageal substitute

HISTORY
The use of the stomach as an esophageal substitute was intro­duced by Kirschner in 1920 as a nonresectional operative bypass. His operation consisted of skeletonization of the greater curvature of the stomach, and the mobilized stomach was then brought subcutaneously up to the divided cervical esophagus. The application of this procedure using either the orthotopic or the retrosternal route after esophagectomy and the standardization of this method was largely due to the work of Ong, Nakayama, and Akiyama.
PRINCIPLES AND JUSTIFICATION
The reconstruction of intestinal transit after esophagectomy is normally made using stomach or colon. The small bowel is used much less frequently for complete substitution of the esophagus. Small bowel interposition does have a place, how­ever, for partial esophageal replacement of both proximal and distal esophagus.
Gastric interposition is the simplest form of esophageal replacement. Furthermore, as it guarantees good long-term functional results, it has become the method of first choice as an esophageal substitute, especially after esophagectomy for cancer. Only when the stomach is not available because of previous operations or in benign esophageal diseases is colonic interposition used.
An important question to be answered in planning an esophageal replacement is where to site the esophagoenteral anastomosis. If intrathoracic anastomoses are performed, they should be carried out near the apex of the pleura. Anastomotic leakage is less likely to occur with intrathoracic anastomosis than with cervical anastomosis, but the conse­quences of such a leak are much more serious. With regard to
oncologic radicality (remaining esophagus) and long-term results, both types of anastomosis are similar.
Finally, the site for the esophageal substitute must be chosen. Antesternal subcutaneous placement is usually not indicated. This leaves the posterior and anterior mediastinal routes available.
Swallowing, at least in the early postoperative phase, is more normal when the interposition is in the posterior medi­astinum. One should also note that the distance through the posterior mediastinum is the shortest. If an intrathoracic anastomoses is performed in the upper thorax, the gastric conduit can only be placed in the posterior mediastinum. In case of cervical anastomoses both routes are possible. The posterior mediastinal route should be avoided for reconstruc­tion if a high-risk for local recurrence exists especially after R1 or R2 resection. If a postoperative radiotherapy of the former tumor site is planned, the anterior mediastinum should be preferred for reconstruction in order to avoid radiation dam­age of the gastric conduit.
PREOPERATIVE ASSESSMENT AND PREPARATION
The stomach may be used as an esophageal substitute only if it has not previously been operated on. After gastric resec­tions the length will be insufficient and after vagotomy proce­dures the vascularization is doubtful. If lesser procedures (such as suturing of a bleeding ulcer or closure of a perfora­tion) have been performed, then a transposition of the stom­ach may be possible, but the vascularity should be checked at the beginning of the operation. A preoperative gastroscopy should be carried out to exclude any mucosal pathology and to confirm the borders of the esophageal tumor. If the cancer
