AIM:To explore a reasonable method of digestive tract reconstruction,namely,antrum-preserving double-tract reconstruction(ADTR),for patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction(AEG) and to assess its efficacy and safety in terms of longterm survival,complications,morbidity and mortality.METHODS:A total of 55 cases were retrospectively collected,including 18 cases undergoing ADTR and 37 cases of Roux-en-Y reconstruction(RY) for AEG(Siewert types Ⅱ and Ⅲ) at North Sichuan Medical College. The cases were divided into two groups. The clinicopathological characteristics,perioperative outcomes,postoperative complications,morbidity and overall survival(OS) were compared for the two different reconstruction methods.RESULTS:Basic characteristics including sex,age,body mass index(BMI),Siewert type,p T status,p N stage,and lymph node metastasis were similar in the two groups. No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of perioperative outcomes(including the length of postoperative hospital stay,operating time,and intraoperative blood loss) and postoperative complications(consisting of anastomosis-related complications,wound infection,respiratory infection,pleural effusion,lymphorrhagia,and cholelithiasis). For the ADTR group,perioperativerecovery indexes such as time to first flatus(P = 0.002) and time to resuming a liquid diet(P = 0.001) were faster than those for the RY group. Moreover,the incidence of reflux esophagitis was significantly decreased compared with the RY group(P = 0.048). The postoperative morbidity and mortality rates for overall postoperative complications and the rates of tumor recurrence and metastasis were not significantly different between the two groups. Survival curves plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by log-rank test demonstrated similar outcomes for the ADTR and RY groups.
