Long ischaemic stricture of the interposed colon.

چکیده
A case is reported of a long segment stricture in a colonic oesophageal replacement with radiographic evidence to support the diagnosis of ischaemia. Ischaemia of the substitute organ following oesophageal resection is a well recognised, serious complication that usually results in anastomotic leakage. If the anastomosis heals primarily, late manifestations of ischaemia are rare.

متن کاملIschaemic colitis.
THE CONCEPT of ischaemia as a cause of colitis is a relatively new one (Marston et al., 1966). It seems to be an uncommon type of colitis and is certainly much less frequent than ulcerative colitis and segmental colitis due to Crohn's disease.
