[A Case of Postoperative Anastomotic Leakage with Septic Shock after Esophageal Cancer Surgery Treated by Two Stage Operation Using Ileocolic Reconstruction].

The patient was a 60s male. He underwent esophagectomy and gastric tube reconstruction for Barrett's esophageal cancer( pT3N1M0, pStage Ⅲ). Postoperatively, anastomotic leakage and mediastinitis resulted in septic shock. On the 8th day after first surgery, he transferred to our hospital. At the time of admission, qSOFA was 3 points. We judged to be difficult to treat with conservative treatment. Emergency right thoracotomy drainage underwent with resection of the esophagogastric anastomosis and cervical esophagostomy construction. He was discharged on the 55th postoperative day with home enteral nutrition. He underwent presternal ileocolic reconstruction on the 97th day after right thoracotomy drainage. On the 19th day after reconstruction, oral intake was started. The general condition is good without recurrence, and oral intake is sufficient at 1 year after reconstruction. We report a case of anastomotic leakage with septic shock after esophageal cancer surgery successfully treated by 2 stage ileocolic reconstruction.
