Abstract

Esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction remained the mainstay treatment for patients with localized esophageal cancer. Numerous methods of esophagectomy have been described. Esophagectomy was performed increasingly by minimally invasive approach due to advances in endoscopic instrumentation in recent years. We presented a novel method for totally laparoscopic staplized formation of gastric tube to facilitate gastric pull-up.
