[Parenteral and enteral nutrition in esophageal stenosis. Initial clinico-experimental results]

The Authors study the pre- and post-operative nutritional treatment of the patients suffering from oesophageal stenosis, principally neoplastic, waiting to undergo the radical operation. Although the compensation of the nutritional situation of these patients through the enteral and parenteral nutrition results difficult to be effected, the results encourage to apply this clinical practice everywhere a demolitive operation, always long, heavy, and burdened by a high morbidity and mortality, is foreseen.
