Esophagectomy with gastroplasty in advanced megaesophagus: late results of omeprazole use.
OBJECTIVE To analyze the late results of advanced Chagasic megaesophagus treatment by esophagectomy associated with the use of proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole) as for the incidence of esophagitis and Barrett's esophagus in the remaining stump.

متن کاملEsophageal Mucosal Resection versus Esophagectomy: a Comparative Study of Surgical Results in Patients with Advanced Megaesophagus
BACKGROUND The surgical treatment of advanced megaesophagus has no consensus, being esophagectomy the more commonly used method. Since it has high morbimortality--inconvenient for benign disease -, in recent years an alternative has been introduced: the esophageal mucosal resection. AIM To compare early and late results of the two techniques evaluating the operative time, length of ICU stay; ...
متن کاملTotal and segmental colonic transit time in constipated patients with Chagas' disease without megaesophagus or megacolon.
Manometric and pharmacological tests have shown that motor abnormalities may occur in the non-dilated colons of chagasic patients. In order to investigate the presence of abnormalities of colonic function in constipated patients with Chagas' disease (ChC) without megaesophagus or megacolon, studies of total and segmental colonic transit time with radiopaque markers were performed on 15 ChC pati...
متن کاملThe segmental ridge-split procedure.
This report details surgical procedures for ridge expansion by means of splitting the crest of an edentulous ridge. Atrophic bony ridges present a unique challenge to the dental implant surgeon. In the past, onlay grafts of bone harvested from the hip, maxillary tuberosity, symphysis of the chin, or external oblique ridge have all been used with success in reconstruction of atrophic ridges. How...
متن کاملSequential Crohn's Ileitis, Ileosigmoidal Fistula, Segmental Sigmoid Polyposis, and Sigmoid Stricture: The Natural History.
BACKGROUND We have previously recognized segmental sigmoid polyps as an indicator of a fistula from Crohn's ileitis to the sigmoid or the proximal rectum. In the course of this study, we realized that many patients with this fistula had no sigmoid polyps, but the sigmoid was the site of marked inflammation and early or late stricture formation. Furthermore, in some patients with a stricture, th...
