Step 4
Vascular Anastomoses
e venous and arterial anastomoses are now performed. First the vein is anastomosed. Preferably a conuens of the major mesenteric vein with a smaller contributing vein is used on the side of the gra and the internal jugular vein on the other side. e incision in the internal jugular vein should be at least 3 to 4 mm long. e anastomosis is performed under a magnication of at least × 4, preferably with a microscope. Running sutures with non-resorbable, monolament material, 8-0 or 9-0, are used. Before closure, the anastomosis is rinsed with heparinized saline.
e vein should be anastomosed before the artery only if an expedient progression of the operation is evident. Should delays occur (e. g., diculties during the preparation or unforeseen anesthesiological circumstances in conjunction with unstable cardiovascular parameters), the artery should be anastomosed prior to the vein, allowing a perfusion of the intestinal ap with nutrient-rich blood until peristalsis returns. If the nature of the delay prevents the anastomoses, the harvested intestinal ap should be stored in moist dressings. If desired, the metabolic rate of the temporary non-perfused ap can be decreased by cooling the ap. Routinely, there is no necessity for the use of organ preservation solutions.
e same technique is used for the artery. e anastomosis can be performed on the superior thyroid artery, the thyrocervical trunk, or the common carotid artery directly. Rarely other cervical branches like the lingual or facial artery are used.
It is extremely important to avoid kinking and compression especially on the vein during placement of the gra into the neck, and during closure of the neck.
If the vascular reconstruction fails, either a second loop can be harvested or a gastric tube can be fashioned (

Esophagojejunal Anastomoses
Aer reperfusion an adequate ow is conrmed. en the lower and nally the upper esoph­agojejunal anastomoses are performed end-to-end or end-to-side aer shortening the gra to an adequate length. ese anastomoses are performed using 3-0 or 4-0 absorbable sutures in a single layer. It is important to grasp the entire thickness of the pharynx or esophagus, whereas the stitches in the jejunum are extramucosal. If the anatomy is demanding (e. g., a very low intratho­racic anastomosis), the suture can be performed in an interrupted fashion. e nasogastric tube is then placed through the gra into the stomach.
It is important to implant the gra in an isoperistaltic fashion to facilitate swallowing. Even under optimal conditions, it can take weeks before the gra gains normal transplant function (. Fig. 9.5).

Step 6
Final Aspects
e neck is drained suciently from both sides with at least one so easy-ow drain on each side. e neck is closed by loose interrupted subcutaneous and skin stitches.
For the postoperative follow-up, it is advantageous to ensure that parts of the jejunal gra are clinically visible. is can be achieved either by placing a few sutures in a manner such as to allow a division of the covering tissue or by conguring the ap so as to leave parts of the ap uncovered, serving as a “monitor” during the postoperative surveillance. Verication of the blood ow can be performed using Doppler ultrasound. As an adjunct, various tissue probes are available, facilitating the measurement of the oxygen partial pressure.

-
Postoperative Complications

-
tube or colon)
Salivary leak (drain adequately)
-
Lymphatic leak

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury
-
Esophageal stenosis (dilate by endoscopy) (long term)
-

Tricks of the Senior Surgeon
Be aggressive to reoperate if vascular status is questionable.
-
Avoid kinking of the vein by keeping it short.
-
Keep central venous pressure high and perform adequate heparinization to avoid vascular
-
problems.
Leave the neck open if the jejunum is congested after reperfusion but cover the vessels with
-
tissue.
If the exposure for vascular reconstruction becomes dicult, perform a hemithyroidectomy.
-
Occasionally a partial sternotomy may enable a safer inferior esophageal anastomosis.
-
Lymphatic leak can be managed conservatively; only rarely the lymphatic duct must be
-
ligated.
Exposure can be facilitated by division of the medial head of the sternocleidomastoid muscle.
-
Previous surgery with resection of the internal jugular vein necessitates dissection down to
-
the subclavian vein.
Early tracheotomy.
-
Avoid compression bandages, tapes around the neck or tracheal strips with extrinsic com-
-
pression of the vascular pedicle.
Left Thoracoabdominal Approach for Carcinoma
of the Lower Esophagus and Gastric Cardia
Shoji Natsugoe, Takashi Aikou
Introduction
Tumors located aborally to the carina, i. e., Barrett’s carcinoma or carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction, may be approached by a le-sided thoracotomy instead of the more usual right-sided access combined with an abdominal approach. e extent of lymphadenectomy is limited to the middle and lower mediastinum.

Step 1
Thoracotomy
e skin incision is made obliquely from the epigastrium toward the sixth or seventh intercostal space, and a good exposure of the mediastinum or abdomen can be achieved by rotating the op­erating table. Aer 1 cm of costal cartilage is resected, the le side of the chest is opened. Distant and peritoneal metastases should be excluded prior to thoracotomy (
. Fig. 10.1).

Step 2
Incision of diaphragm and mobilization of the colon
Para-aortic lymphadenectomy is performed by delivering the splenic exure into the chest through a circumferential incision in the periphery of the diaphragm. e descending colon is then mobi­lized down the le paracolic gutter to the base of the sigmoid colon mesentery. Aer mobilization of the le kidney from the retroperitoneum as well as pancreas and spleen, the le renal vein is identied (
. Fig. 10.2).

Step 5
Lower mediastinal lymph node removal
Regarding the le intrathoracic approach, the le pulmonary ligament is divided and the medias­tinal pleura is opened. e pleura covering the lower thoracic esophagus is incised, allowing the clearance of loose connective tissue together with the lower thoracic paraesophageal, supradia­phragmatic, posterior mediastinal and intradiaphragmatic lymph nodes (
. Fig. 10.5).

Reconstruction
ere are several methods of reconstruction according to the tumor location and extension. Roux­Y reconstruction by using an EEA stapler introduced through the end of the Roux limb (see
Chap. 13, . Fig. 13.5) or a hand sewn end to side anastomosis, as shown here, is an option for
performing the esophago-jejunostomy (

Tricks of the Senior Surgeon
Kinking of the Roux limb: this is a rare but dangerous complication, due to clinical symptoms
-
of diculty passage due to relative obstruction of injested content through the Roux limb secondary to elongation, which requires surgical intervention and is performed by shorten­ing of the Roux limb.
If the trachea is injured, use direct suture and pericardial ap.
