    Author: Valoria Villamartín JM, Digiuni Avalis EM, Pérez Tejerizo G, García Almendros V.
    Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 1983 Jul; 19(1):11-8. PubMed ID: 6638707.
    Abstract:
    A series of fourteen colon esophagoplasties carried out in children suffering from different pathologies (seven caustic stenosis, five of the peptic type and two atresias) is reported. The intestinal segments used were the terminal ileum right colon in seven cases and the transverse left colon in the other seven. A decreasing number of indications has been observed. The main technical aspects are commented. The results of this technique have been rewarding: a reduced morbidity with no mortality and excellent long-term function were obtained in twelve patients.
