Methods： Forty patients with mid and upper esophageal tumor enrolled into this study were randomly allocated into two groups （the control group, group C and the novel method group, group N）. All the patients were applied mechanical anastomosis to finish the cervical esophageal reconstruction. The procedure of NGT insertion for group C use the conventional method; well, the group N use the novel technique. Results： All the patients in group N had been finished the NGT insertion in the first attempt, and the total time for insertion was （5.05 ＋ 1.15） mins; on the contrary, for the group C, duration of insertion （min） was （24.45 ± 5.23） mins, and the successful rate of NGT insertion in the first attempt was 40% （P〈 0.05）; no one in group N had coiling/kinking, and 6/20 （30%） in group C had it （P= 0.020）. The complication rate of bleeding between the two group had no significant difference. Conclusion： For the patient with mid and upper esophageal tumor who need cervical esophageal reconstruction, this novel method can save the NGT insertion time, and make it easier with higher successful rate.展开更多

It is a rare condition in which bile passes into the pleural space from the abdominal cavity, necessitating urgent treatment. This article aims to present a case of bilothorax treated successfully in our institute and review the literature on this topic to better understand this medical problem and the best ways of dealing with it. We presented in this article a case of bilothorax after an attempt of biliary drainage in a known pancreatic cancer patient and the way we managed it. We concluded about the importance of the early recognition of this medical problem and the necessity of aggressive and early management to prevent further morbidities and mortality.展开更多
