Background: There is no consensus for esophageal reconstruction in the pediatric
population. Long defects are commonly repaired with gastric pull-up or colonic interposition; …

The current study reports the surgical technique and the clinical long term results of pediatric
esophageal substitution with a pedicled jejunal loop in two patients with long gap …

Introduction Several surgical techniques are available for pediatric esophageal
reconstruction. We started to use pedicled jejunum interposition graft (PJIG) because other …

Background A variety of surgical techniques exist to manage long-gap esophageal atresia
(LGEA), including gastric pull-up (GPU), colonic interposition (CI), jejunal interposition (JI) …

Background/purpose Long gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) represents 10% of all
esophageal atresias but can be complex to manage. Jejunal interposition (JI) has been …

Aim No consensus exists about the optimal surgical technique for esophageal replacement.
This study reports the surgical outcomes for the gastric pull-up and the colonic interposition …

BACKGROUND: Esophageal continuity after esophagectomy can be established without a
viable stomach conduit by using the colon or jejunum. The current study evaluated the …

Background The consequences of major conduit necrosis following oesophagectomy are
devastating. Jejunal interposition with vascular supercharging is an alternative …

Background: When gastric pull-up is unsuccessful or unsuitable for total esophageal
reconstruction, a supercharged pedicled jejunum can be used to reestablish gastrointestinal …

INTRODUCTION: Gastric pull-up has become the predominant technique for esophageal
replacement because of allegedly deficient results of colon grafts. This retrospective study …
