متن کاملUsefulness of Pyloromyotomy With Transhiatal Esophagectomy in Improving Gastric Emptying
INTRODUCTION Pyloromyotomy is a pyloric drainage procedure routinely done during transhiatal esophagectomy (THE) to prevent delayed gastric emptying (GE) resulting from truncal vagotomy. However, controversy still surrounds the need for pyloric drainage following esophageal substitution with gastric conduit after esophagectomy. The aim of this study was to determine the usefulness of pyloromyot...
