[Reconstruction of oesophageal passage in extended stenosis of cervical oesophago-gastrostomy].

This case report demonstrates possibilities of cooperation between thoracic surgeon and head and neck surgeon in extended stenoses after plastic oesophagus procedures. For reconstruction of the oesophagus passage it is necessary to institute reconstructive measures with the appropriate flap plastics in several stages. Localizing the stenosis of anastomoses in the thoracic cavity requires a large trough-shaped removal of the sternum to protect the supra-aortal vessels as well as to form a gastrostoma.
