THORACOSCOPIC APPROACHES FOR ESOPHAGEAL ANASTOMOSIS

Аннотация

Since the development of thoracic surgery, the organ on which the most advanced operations are performed has been the esophagus. The reasons for this are numerous: anatomical features of the esophagus, features of its syntotic arrangement with other organs, features of blood supply and innervation, etc. For a long time, operations on the esophagus were rarely performed due to their high trauma and high frequency of complications. The surgical tactics for esophageal tumors are not simply removing the pathological part of the organ or the entire esophagus, but also removing the surrounding lymphatic tissues, which adhere tightly to the surrounding vessels, nerve fibers, and mediastinal organs, which inevitably poses a significant risk to the patient's life. The article provides an overview of the history, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and effectiveness of various esophageal anastomoses in various esophageal tumors. The basis of scientific research is the diagnostic and diverse surgical treatment tactics for patients.
