Abstract:

Esophagogastric junction tumors are a challenging pathology for surgeons and the best treatment depends on an adequate initial localization and stadification. Approximately half of patients relapse after curative surgery during the first two years. Surgical resection could increase the survival of these patients, but the esophageal reconstruction is a surgical challenge for which there are multiple reconstruction techniques described with different organs. In this report, we present the case of a patient with an esophagogastric junction tumor treated initially with total gastrectomy and esophageal margin. The patient presented an anastomotic recurrence that was taken to surgical resection, but a second recurrence required a residual esophagectomy with ileocolonic reconstruction, to achieve adequate oncologic treatment.
