Background: Surgical treatment of corrosive esophageal stricture with colon interposition was very widely used. The colon interposition advantage is low reflux esophagitis risk and preservation of gastric capacity and peristalsis. This procedure was introduced by Orsoni and much improved. But, if stomach injury was minimal, gastric interposition is useful due to simple technique and low complication. Material and Method: Esophageal reconstruction by the transhiatal esophagectomy and intracervical esophagogastrostomy was done in 7 patients of corrosive esophageal stricture at Dong-San medical center from January 1998 to December 2007. Result: There were six female and one male patients raBackground Surgical treatment of corrosive esophageal stricture with colon interposition was very widely used.

Result: There were six female and one male patients ranging from 29 to 69 years of age. The complication was two anastomosis site leakage, one gastric necrosis and one mortality due to bowel strangulation and sepsis. Conclusion: Transhiatal esophagectomy and intracervical esophagogastrostomy is safety and useful method at selection case even though corrosive esophageal resection is debated.

Accidental ingestion of caustic substance is one of the common problems among children around the world. Acid intake accounts for a mere 5% of all reported cases of corrosive ingestion in the West. Because of the esophageal sparing effect of acid, clinically significant esophageal involvement after acid ingestion occurs in only 6 to 20 percent of the instances. Despite effort of prevention, 7% to 15% of children sustaining caustic esophageal burns develop esophageal strictures. If balloon dilatation or bougie dilatation fails to resolve the esophageal strictures, successful outcome following replacement by colon or stomach has been reported in children. But the complications and morbidity following these operations are still relatively high. Seven patients with corrosive-acid induced esophageal strictures who were operated upon at the Department of Pediatric Surgery, Seoul National University Children's Hospital from 1991 to 1995 were reviewed. Primary resection and anastomosis was performed in all of 7 patients. The stricture involved short segments of the esophagus at the level of the lower cervical and the upper thoracic vertebra. The operations were approached through a left cervical incision or a left thoracotomy. In one patient, operative repair of anastomotic leakage was done, and three patients required re-resection of anastomotic strictures postoperatively, and one patient required a third operation(reversed gastric tube) due to an anastomotic stricture. The other anastomotic leaks, strictures or pulmonary complications were resolved with conservative treatment. In conclusion, primary resection and anastomosis of the esophagus was performed successfully on the 6 of 7 children with acid induced corrosive esophageal strictures. This approach is physiologic, especially in children who should have a long life expectancy, and recommended for the treatment of short-segment acid induced corrosive esophageal strictures.

Reconstructive surgery for corrosive esophageal stricture was performed in 392 patients at National Medical Center from 1959 to 1990 Between Jan. 1971 and Dec. 1990, 23 cases were experienced stenotic anastoma of neck after reconstructive surgery for corrosive esophageal stricture. The major procedure of esophageal reconstruction was colon interposition without resection of the strictured esophagus except jejunal interposition in 1 case. There were 12 males % 11 females, and mean age was forty years. The caustic materials were 16[70%] alkali and 7[30%] acid. Half of the cases had hypopharyngeal injury. After reconstructed surgery, dysphagia was developed immediate in 65%, from 2 months to 5 months in 31%, and from years in 4%[1 case]. The complications were anastomatic leakage in 13 cases, anastomatic stenosis in 8 cases, graft gangrene in 1 case, and cancer development in 1 case. The therapeutic procedures were end-to-end anstomolis & partial resection of stenotic anastoma in 18 cases, bourgination in 2 cases, and coin interposition with graft removal in 3 cases. The therapeutic results were excellent in 16 cases, mild discomfort in 3 cases, poor in 3 cases, and death in 1 cases.

During a ten-year period from August, 1978 to September, 1989 45 patients with benign esophageal stricture were surgically evaluated. The results are as follows; l. Out of 45 patients, there were 26 males and 19 females ranging from 2 to 70 years of age with a mean of 31.9 years. 2. The most common cause of benign esophageal stricture was corrosive burn due to caustic agents[40 cases, 88.9 %]. Corrosive agents were 15 cases of lye, 22 cases of acid and 3 cases of other agents. Other causes were two cases of esophageal web and each one case of previous surgical result, inflammation and idiopathic mediastinal fibrosis respectively. 3. The most frequent stricture site was whole esophagus as 21 cases[46.7 %] and the next was lower a third thoracic esophagus[10 cases, 25.0%]. 4. In 33 of total 45 cases, colon interposition with right colon was performed without resection of the strictured esophagus except one case which was complicated esophageal cancer. Other procedures were 4 cases esophagogastrostomy with segmental resection, 2 cases of plastic repair and so on. 5. Major postoperative complications which were needed for secondary operation were 5 cases[11.1 %]. [2 cases of stenosis, ileus and ulcer bleeding respectively] Overall mortality rate was 4.4 %.

The strictured esophagus is not removed usually in corrosive injury. But corrosion carcinoma and the late complications such as esophago-bronchial fistula, chronic mediastinal abscess, diverticulum can occur in case that strictured & inflamed esophagus be remained. Recently transhiatal esophagectomy is being done with low mortality and morbidity. So we are reporting 2 cases of esophageal stricture in young patients which were treated with transhiatal esophagectomy and esophagocologastrostomy. All of 2 cases were successfully treated and recovered. Postoperative esophageal function tests showed the mild reflux but it did not count clinically.

Between Dec. 1958 and Oct. 1989, we had been experienced 14 cases of the esophageal corrosion carcinoma among 562 cases of corrosive esophageal stricture, which incidence was revealed 5.6 % of total esophageal carcinoma cases and 2.5 9o of total benign esophageal stricture cases. The age distribution was from 15 to 64 years, and the mean age was 45.6 years. Ten of the patients were women. The caustic agents were lye in 12 patients and hydrochloric acid in 2 patients. The latent time from injury to the development of carcinoma was from 12 years to 45 years, and the mean latent time was 29 years. In majority of cases, the developing site of carcinoma was just or just above the benign stricture portion of the esophagus. Corrective surgery were made in seven cases; three cases were made esophagectomy and esophagogastrostomy, and the other four cases were made esophagectomy and colon interposition. Palliative surgery including feeding gastrostomy were made in seven cases. All cases had a longstanding history of difficult oral swallowing especially at the site of stricture. We think chronic food irritations of stricture portion of the esophagus induced the development of corrosion carcinoma. In conclusion, we had to suspect possibility of carcinoma in patient with long standing history of benign esophageal stricture. So we recommended preoperative esophagoscopic biopsy in such cases.

Various flaps are using for reconstruction of esophageal defect. The choice of reconstruction is depended to the oncologic needs of the situation. If the entire esophagus or significant part of the thoracic esophagus is involved by tumor, then total esophagectomy and gastric pull-up or colon transposition is indicated. But for most hypopharyngeal tumors, laryngopharyngeal tumors, and cervical esophageal tumors, segmental resection of these area and replacement with a jejunal fee or forearm free flap has become the standard technique. The authors have experienced a case of total pharyngo-laryngo-esophago-gastrectomy and colon transposition in a patient of esophageal cancer following partial esophagectomy and gastic pull-up due to corrosive esophageal stricture. We report this case with brief review of the literatures.
