Risk Factors for Benign Anastomotic Stenosis After Esophagectomy for Cancer
The key risk factors for intrathoracic benign anastomotic stenosis are anastomotic leakage, smaller circular stapler size, use of immunosuppressants, and chronic pulmonary disease. For cervical anastomoses, the hand-sewn end-to side technique is protective compared with the end-to-end technique, whereas use of immunosuppressants and chronic pulmonary disease increases the risk.
