[Reconstruction following cardia resection using an interposed jejunal loop without mesenteric resection].

For reconstruction after cardial resection, we invented a method combining the cardial resection method of Nissen and the gastrectomy method of Tomoda. One peculiarity of this method is the reconstruction by means of a jejunal sling that becomes intercalated between esophagus and antrum without wide dissection of the mesentery. By this method, the esophageal passage is physiological and the frequency of esophageal regurgitation compared with esophagogastrostomy is diminished.
