Abstract：

UNLABELLED:It was the aim of the study to find by retrospective analysis of data from totally gastrectomized patients risk factors for the development of esophago-jejunal anastomotic leakage, that may be avoidable or influenced therapeutically. PATIENTS AND METHODS:The study design was retrospective involving 838 patients with total gastrectomy for gastric cancer from the years 1973-1993. In 134 cases leakage of the esophago-jejunostomy occurred. The relative risk for the development of leakage associated with individual parameters was determined by comparing the data from 704 patients without leakage to the data from 134 patients presenting with this complication. For a subgroup of 86 patients with anastomotic leakage microbiological data of swabs taken from the anastomoses were available, which were evaluated with respect to potentially pathogenic bacilli. RESULTS:The overall leakage rate of esophago-jejunal anastomoses was 15.9% (n = 134). The mortality rate during this time period amounted to 14.3%. Leakage was a most highly significant factor for mortality (p = 0.0001). Significant risk factors for leakage of the esophago-jejunostomy were tumors of the cardia, splenectomy, a duration of operating time of more than 5 hours and manual suture technique compared to stapler anastomoses. Tumor unrelated associated disease, tumor stage and a history of other preexisting gastric diseases were not associated with an increased relative risk. At the time of the initial clinical manifestation of leakage the following pathogenic bacilli could be isolated from leaking anastomoses with decreasing incidence: E. coli, S. aureus, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae a.o. The bacterial spectrum has not changed during the observation period of 20 years. SUMMARY:With the exception of the choice of suture techniques the identified clinical risk factors cannot be avoided or influenced therapeutically due to a lack of potentially curative treatment alternatives. In contrast potentially pathogenic bacilli associated with leakage can be prevented from coming in contact with anastomoses thereby preventing infection and leakage.
