A 68-year-old male patient with oesophageal cancer was treated by oesophageal resection and the antethoracic reconstruction was made by using the ventricle. The oesophagogastrostoma developed a necrosis and later a 5 cm stricture and a gastrocutaneous fistula. Both the stricture and the fistula were treated by plastic surgery using a reversed pectoralis skin pedicle flap and free skin graft.

Pancreatic duct (PD) strictures, leaks, and disconnected ducts are important morphologic consequences of inflammatory disease of the pancreas, resulting in abdominal pain, pancreatic ascites, pancreatic pleural effusion, and external pancreatic fistula. Traditionally, these PD complications were treated surgically, but a better understanding of their pathophysiology, along with advancement in endoscopic interventions, has transformed the therapy from morbid surgical interventions to minimally invasive, safe, and effective endoscopic treatment. This review discusses the current diagnostic and management strategies for PD strictures, leaks, and disconnected pancreatic ducts.

Background: Surgical clip migration is a rare complication that can happen many years following a successful cholecystectomy. It has a similar clinical presentation as choledocholithiasis. The diagnosis is usually made using imaging modalities such as ultrasounds, computed tomography (CT) scans, or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP).

Background: Colonic stenosis in Crohn's disease (CD) is uncommon, and data on surgery-free survival are limited. This study aimed to determine surgery-free survival rates and identify associated factors.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted from 2003 to 2022, including patients with CD complicated by colonic stenosis.
Cost-Effective Day Surgery for Arteriovenous Fistula Stenosis: A Viable Model for Hemodialysis Patients.

Department of Nephrology, Beijing Haidian Hospital (Haidian Section of Peking University Third Hospital), Beijing, China.
BACKGROUND For patients with end-stage renal disease, arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are often used for hemodialysis, but stenosis can impair their function. Traditional inpatient procedures to address AVF stenosis are effective but resource-intensive, prompting the need for alternative approaches like day surgery to optimize care and reduce costs. This study evaluated the feasibility of a day surgery model for AVF stenosis treatment in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, aiming to develop a cost-effective and high-quality care model.
