Core Tip |
Esophageal conduit necrosis is an uncommon but devastating complication of esophagectomy and remains one of the most challenging issues in surgical practice. The purpose of this literature review is to provide the practicing surgeon with an up to date literature review on this complication and discuss the management of this rare condition. The incidence, time interval to develop symptoms, and clinical presentation are highly variable with no predictable pattern. Evidence comes from case reports and case series rather than randomized controlled trials. Our review details the pathophysiology, predisposing factors, clinical symptoms, diagnostic approach and we will highlight treatment options for the management of this life threatening condition. |
