The development of neovascularity was marked and facilitated by omentopexy. The procedure of wrapping by pedicled pericardium and pleura was not so useful for promoting neovascularity as would be expected, and it was almost the same as non-wrapping one. Meanwhile, recanalization by wrapping with free pleura was delayed. When esophagectomy was combined with bronchoplasty, revascularization was apparently retarded. In conclusion, wound healing at bronchial anastomosis was markedly impaired so that omentopexy was recommended for facilitating wound healing at anastomosis., Acta medica Nagasakiensia. 1988, 33(1-4), p.87-90}, pages = {87--90}, title = {Benefit from omentopexy on bronchial wound healing in performing concurrent esophagectomy}, volume = {33}, year = {1988} }
