    Abstract:
    A new modification of horizontal esophago-enterostomy has been introduced into clinical practice. The operative techniques is described in detail. Gastrectomy was performed in 76 patients for carcinoma; there were 49 males and 27 females whose ages ranged from 39 to 70 years. Such complications as incompetence of the sutures of the anastomoses did not occur in the immediate postoperative period. Examination of patients in follow-up periods of 4 weeks to 2 years after the operation revealed neither cicatricial stenosis of the esophago-enteric anastomosis nor reflux esophagitis.
