Abstract
This article gives an overview of mechanical esophageal anastomosis. The results of the esophageal anastomoses formation by using circular and linear stitching devices (staplers) by Russian and foreign authors are presented in chronological order. The faults of staplers, complications associated with them are described. The importance of the problem related to the choice of anastomotic technique to reduce the risks of specific complications such as leakage and stricture of esophageal anastomosis was remarked by authors. The advantages and disadvantages of the currently known esophageal anastomotic methods have been analyzed. It was noted that mechanical side-to-side anastomoses are associated with low frequency of leakage, stricture, postoperative mortality, that’s why they have become preferable, especially in the mini-invasive reconstructive surgery. The authors concluded that the question about the feasibility of mechanical esophageal anastomoses formation is not answered, the evaluation of the properties of modern staplers and the search for the best esophageal anastomotic method are relevant for modern surgery.
