Core Tip
Core tip: Antrum-preserving double-tract reconstruction (ADTR) was introduced to improve the near-term quality of life and decrease reflux esophagitis in patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction. The clinicopathological characteristics, perioperative outcomes, postoperative complications, morbidity and overall survival after ADTR and Roux-en-Y reconstruction (RY) (ADTR group, n = 18 vs RY group, n = 37) were retrospectively compared to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the procedures. The results of the study demonstrated that ADTR was technically safe and feasible, offering an agreeable near-term quality of life, especially in terms of early recovery and the alleviation of reflux esophagitis. ADTR may be a worthwhile digestive tract reconstruction method for Siewert types II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction.
