Colon interposition for benign esophageal disease
Abstract
Our experience for the past seven years with colon interposition is reviewed. Colon interposition resulted in all patients being relieved of symptoms and satisfied with their result. Colon interposition for nondilatable benign esophageal stricture was shown to be efficacious. In patients undergoing colon interposition for a failed esophagomyotomy, excellent or good results were obtained in a thirty month follow-up period with no operative failures.
