Abstract: In this review, we present currently accepted algorithms for the detection of anastomotic leakages, their classification and treatment algorithms. A literature search through PubMed Medline/PubMed, Science Direct, Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO) database, was performed searching articles focusing on anastomotic leakage after esophagectomys, and surgical management. The proper therapy must be chosen with regard to the status of the neoesophagus and the patient's basic problem. Recently, a number of endoscopic intervention methods have been established that have shown favorable results in the treatment of smaller fistulas with intact conduit perfusion. In the case of necrosis, nonetheless, immediate and determined surgery is required. These situations are still associated with high morbidity and mortality; however high volume centers have shown improved outcome data even in this imperiled collective. Additional amelioration of patient results will be made possible by increased specialization and novel treatment methods relying on decreasingly invasive yet efficient intervention approaches.
Keywords: anastomotic leakages, treatment algorithms, tient's basic problem.
