Intrathoracic Esophagogastric Anastomosis After Robot Assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy Using STRATAFIX

United States30 participantsStarted 2015-12

Plain-language summary

Determine the safety and efficacy of novel suture in esophageal anastomosis. Specific Aims: 1) Determine the safety of using STRATAFIX suture in esophagogastric anastomosis by measuring anastomotic leak rate; and 2) Determine efficacy of STRATAFIX suture in esophagogastric anastomosis by measure anastomotic stricture rate.
