食管-胃颈部侧侧机械吻合法在三切口食管癌切除术中的应用

背景与目的：左颈、右胸、腹部三切口食管癌切除术的应用日益广泛,但该术式术后颈部吻合口瘘和狭窄的发生率明显高于胸内食管-胃吻合术。本研究旨在探讨食管-胃颈部侧侧机械吻合法在预防三切口食管癌切除术后颈部吻合口瘘以及吻合口狭窄的发生方面的作用。方法：我院2004年1月—2008年2月间收治的71例食管癌患者,均采用经左颈、右胸、腹部正中三切口,二次体位食管次全切除,胸、腹二野淋巴结清扫,食管-胃颈部侧侧机械吻合术,与同期所做的56例手工吻合病例在吻合口瘘和吻合口狭窄的发生率方面进行比较,以SPSS11.0软件对结果进行χ2检验。结果：侧侧机械吻合组的吻合口瘘和吻合口狭窄的发生率分别为9.9%（7/71）和2.8%（2/71）,均低于手工吻合组的25.0%（14/56）和16.1%（9/56）,差异有显著性（P〈0.05）。结论：使用侧侧机械切割缝合器进行食管-胃侧侧吻合术显著扩大了吻合口直径,故术后吻合口狭窄的发生率可望大大降低。该吻合方法发生瘘及继发狭窄的机会也很小,因此可以作为食管-胃颈部吻合的一个备选术式。

Application of a side-to-side stapled cervical esophagogastric anastomosis after three-incision esophagectomy for cancer

Background and purpose:Three-incision esophagectomy for patients with esophageal cancer has been increasingly used, but the incidence of either postoperative anastomotic leak or stricture is higher than that in intrathoracic gastroesophageal anastomosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical effects of the side-to-side stapled cervical gastroesophageal anastomosis in preventing anastomotic leak and stricture after three-incision esophagectomy. Methods:One hundred and twenty-seven patient...
