Methods: 27 ex-vivo dogs were divided into three groups in order to evaluate: G1 -total thoracic esophagectomy by the everting stripping method; G2 -total thoracic esophagectomy and esophageal substitution using the whole stomach; G3 -total thoracic esophagectomy and esophageal substitution using fundus rotation gastroplasty. After esophageal resection in G1, the int… Show more
