BACKGROUND: Radical surgery with lymphadenectomy offers the best chance of curing esophageal cancer, but it carries considerable risks. Generally, the resected esophagus is replaced with a gastric tube. Rupture of the gastric tube staple line is a rare but serious surgical complication. One unresolved issue is whether oversewing of the longitudinal gastric staple line is necessary to avoid staple line rupture or insufficiency.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 2000 and February 2008, 199 patients underwent esophageal resection for cancer or perforation at the Vienna General Hospital, Medical University of Vienna. Data were collected prospectively. Of these patients, 151 (75.9%) underwent reconstruction by pulling up a gastric tube. These comprised the study population. In 83 patients (55.0%) the longitudinal gastric staple line was not oversewn (group A). In 68 patients (45.0%) the staple line was reinforced by invaginating sutures (group B).
RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 62.0 +/- 10.6 years (median: 63.1 years). Males comprised 75.5% of the population. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 77 patients (51.0%), 63 patients (41.7%) suffered from a squamous cell carcinoma, 10 patients (6.6%) had esophageal perforation, and in 1 patient (0.7%) a gastrointestinal stromal tumor was diagnosed. In group A, a leak within the staple line was observed in 4 of 83 patients (4.9%). No leak was found in group B (p = 0.09). Major surgical complications included anastomotic leakage (21 patients; 13.9%), gastric tip necrosis (3 patients; 2%), postoperative ileus (3 patients; 2.0%) and chylothorax (7 patients; 4.6%). Two major intraoperative complications (1.3%) were splenic injury and aortic bleeding.
CONCLUSION: A remarkable but not statistically significant difference was found regarding staple line rupture between study groups. However, all leaks were seen in patients without a staple line suture.
