Autologous Skin-Grafting Surgery to Prevent Esophageal Stenosis After Complete Circular Endoscopic Submucosal Tunnel Dissection for Superficial Esophageal Neoplasms.
American Journal of Gastroenterology 2019 May
OBJECTIVES: To assess the safety and effectiveness of autologous skin-grafting surgery (ASGS) for preventing esophageal stenosis after complete circular endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ccESTD) for superficial esophageal neoplasms.
METHODS: Between October 2017 and March 2018, 8 patients who underwent ccESTD and ASGS were included. We assessed the occurrence of esophageal stenosis and adverse events.
RESULTS: No adverse events occurred, including perforation, bleeding, wound infection, or stent migration. Five patients did not experience stenosis over a median follow-up of 7 months.
CONCLUSIONS: ASGS appeared to be a safe and effective way to prevent esophageal stenosis after ccESTD.
