[The surgical and combined treatments of locally disseminated cardioesophageal cancer].

The article deals with the experience in the treatment of more than 1,000 patients with cardioesophageal carcinoma in 1965-1989. The authors note increase of surgical activity and widening of indications for operative treatment at the cost of patients of the old age groups and those with locally-extending forms of the neoplastic process. In distinguishing the term cardioesophageal carcinoma the authors insist on the community of the surgical tactics and operative methods in carcinoma of the cardia extending to the esophagus and in esophageal carcinoma spreading to the stomach. Improvement of the results of tre treatment the authors attribute to the perfection of the methods of lymphodissection and formation of esophageal anastomoses. The authors claim that the development of effective methods of combined treatment underlies the prospects of improving the late-term results. Experience in preoperative hypoxyradiotherapy, adjuvant postoperative chemotherapy, and preoperative regional intraarterial polychemotherapy is analysed.

[The treatment of the sequelae of penetrating injuries to the esophagus].

On the basis of experience in the treatment of the sequelae of penetrating esophageal injuries in 79 patients the authors divided the patients into 3 groups: those in whom the perforation healed and stricture of the esophagus developed; patients with incurable purulent complications and esophageal fistulas; patients who underwent various operative interventions for acute perforation or its sequelae and needed a reconstructive operation. Recommendations on the choice of adequate therapeutic tactics for each group are given. The method of examination of the patients and the peculiarities of surgical treatment are described in detail. The most frequently encountered complications and the produced results are analysed. It is concluded that patients with sequelae of esophageal perforation must be treated at specialized clinics experienced in the management of this severe condition.

[Extensive lymph node excision in the surgical treatment of esophageal and gastric cancer].

Experience with 100 operations for carcinoma of the esophagus and stomach with expanded lymphadenectomy is analysed. The operative techniques are described and the necessity and expediency of expanded lymphadenectomy, the method of its performance, classification of the group of lymph nodes which must be removed are discussed. The postoperative mortality was 2%, complications in the postoperative period 25%. Metastases in the lymph nodes were confirmed histologically in 69% of cases. It is concluded that expanded lymphadenectomy is a necessary measure in surgical intervention in patients with carcinoma of the esophagus and stomach and improves the results of management of this group of patients.

[Combined gastrectomy with extensive lymph node excision in the surgical treatment of cancer of the stomach].

The authors discuss experience in combined gastrectomy in 206 patients with gastric carcinoma. They encountered 72 various postoperative complications which were not fatal. Fourteen patients died, which made up a total postoperative mortality of 6.8%. The most frequent and threatening complication was incompetence of the esophago-intestinal++ anastomosis, which occurred in 17 cases (8.3%) and was the cause of death of 6 patients (42.9%). The incidence of purulent and pleuropulmonary complications was 19.9 and 3.4%, respectively. Extensive lymphadenectomy was performed in combined gastrectomy in 40 cases, which accounted for 42.6% of all combined interventions. The incidence of complication was lowest in this group of patients (15%), and there were only 2 fatal outcomes (5%). The authors believe that total gastrectomy with omentectomy, splenectomy, resection of the lower esophagus, and extensive lymphadenectomy is the method of choice in surgical treatment of gastric carcinoma.

[Reconstruction of the cervical part of the esophagus using a free revascularized segment of the jejunum and microsurgical technic].

The article analyses the experience in 11 reconstructions of the pharynx and cervical esophagus with a free vascularized jejunal segment employing microsurgical technique for squamous cell carcinoma of the upper digestive tract. The operative technique is described. It is noted that this operative procedure is a difficult method of surgical management of defects in the pharynx and cervical esophagus and is attended in some cases with complications. From personal experience and review of the literature, the authors conclude that autotransplantation of a free vascularized jejunal segment with the use of microsurgical technique is the best method for reconstruction of defects in the pharynx and cervical esophagus.
