    Area of Science:

    • Surgical instrumentation
    • Gastrointestinal surgery
    • Esophageal reconstruction

    Background:

    • Esophageal replacement operations often require transposing intestinal or stomach segments.
    • Current methods can be challenging due to tissue manipulation and positioning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel surgical instrument designed to facilitate the transposition of visceral organs for esophageal replacement.
    • To highlight the instrument's unique features and clinical utility.

    Main Methods:

    • Description of a new surgical instrument with a flexible shaft and an adjustable gripping end.
    • Clinical application of the instrument in transposing colonic segments and the entire stomach.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The instrument successfully eased the transposition of intestinal and stomach segments to the neck.
    • It was effectively used for esophageal replacement and bypassing malignant growths.

    Conclusions:

    • The described instrument offers an improved method for transposing long intestinal segments or the entire stomach to the neck.
    • It facilitates anastomosis with the cervical esophagus, enhancing surgical outcomes.
