Figure 3 Contrast-enhanced abdominal X-ray images showing anastomotic leakage. A: Anastomotic leakage in a 77-year-old man with total gastric resection and Roux-n-Y anastomosis (arrows) for gastric cancer on the 6th postoperative day; B: Anastomotic leakage detected in a 63-year-old man on the postoperative 4th day who underwent esophagectomy + gastric pull-up for distal esophagus tumor; C: Repeated control contrast-enhanced abdominal X-ray showed healing in the same patient on postoperative 30th day.
