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
