Core Tip |
Transplantation of muscle flaps or omental ones for esophageal leakage or fistula from outside the wall is reported to be effective. But surgical intervention often has postoperative morbidities and is contraindicated when the patient has poor health conditions. We developed this endoscopic pedicle grafting method based on the hypothesis that mucosal flap could induce epithelization. Our single case study showed that the flap can heal small fistula orifice and can reduce large one. It exhibits potential to cure selected esophageal fistulas when surgery is not viable. |
