Abstract
A case of iatrogenic right gastroepiploic artery injury during laparoscopic transhiatal esophagectomy is reported. This case report describes microvascular repair of the right gastroepiploic artery and vein. Subsequent intraoperative decision making with regard to a staged, single-admission successful esophagectomy is discussed. In this case of a single-admission, staged esophagectomy, the gastric conduit was be preserved after transection of the right gastroepiploic artery and vein.Entities:
