This case report describes an esophagojejunal anastomotic leak following total gastrectomy for gastric cancer. The leak was treated successfully with endoscopic application of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate. This is the first case report on the endoscopic application of cyanoacrylate alone for the treatment of an anastomotic leak.
This report describes a case of a 68-year-old Caucasian man who underwent surgery for gastric cancer. He underwent total gastrectomy and esophagojejunal anastomosis with Roux-en-Y anastomosis plus transverse colectomy. An anastomotic leak was treated conservatively at first for a total of three weeks. However, the leak persisted; therefore, the decision was made to apply topical endoscopic n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate.
The endoscopic application of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate alone can be used successfully to treat esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage.
本病例报告描述了一例胃癌全胃切除术后的食管空肠吻合口漏。通过内镜下应用氰基丙烯酸正丁酯成功治疗了该漏口。这是首例关于单独应用氰基丙烯酸酯内镜治疗吻合口漏的病例报告。
本报告描述了一例68岁的白种男性胃癌手术患者。他接受了全胃切除术、食管空肠吻合术(Roux-en-Y吻合术)及横结肠切除术。吻合口漏起初进行了三周的保守治疗。然而,漏口持续存在;因此,决定采用内镜下局部应用氰基丙烯酸正丁酯治疗。
单独应用氰基丙烯酸正丁酯内镜可成功用于治疗食管空肠吻合口漏。
