Abstract

Authors present their experience in treatment of the long term complications after Lexer-Judin and Lexer-Judin-Papo operations. They discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these procedures. In the period from 1977 to 2003 in the Institute for digestive diseases 16 patients had to be operated because of the stenosis in the region of dermato-jejunal anastomosis or because of the bad esthetic results of this operations. They suggest that the extirpation of dermal tube, mobilisation of the jejunum and new pharyngo-jejunal anastomosis is the operation of choice.
