Original Source: Management of Esophageal Perforation and Anastomotic Leak by Transluminal Drainage.
INTRODUCTION: The management of esophageal perforations and leaks remains a challenge. Although there are broad management principles, each situation may require a different surgical approach. The aim of this report was to describe the management of these esophageal crises by transluminal drainage via a transabdominal approach. METHODS: Between 2005 and 2009, patients with anastomotic or gastric staple line leak (n = 4) or esophageal perforation (n = 2) underwent transabdominal surgery and translumi...
