However, this procedure sometimes causes severe complications, such as mechanical bowel obstruction. In 2009, we developed a modified approach to insert an enteral feeding tube through the reconstructed gastric tube using the round ligament of the liv...

Various enteral feeding options are available post-esophagectomy, but no definitive preference exists. METHOD "Retrosternal Route Gastrostomy Feeding (RGF)" was developed as an alternative enteral feeding approach that requires few additional surgical intervent...
