Implication

Systematic review and network meta-analysis finds no significant differences in surgical outcomes for gastric conduit, colonic interposition, and jejunal flap techniques.

Key Points

No significant differences in anastomotic leak rates among gastric conduit, jejunal flap, and colonic interposition techniques were observed.
Of the 3927 patients, 79.5% underwent gastric pull-up, with jejunal flap showing better trends in length of stay and mortality.
A systematic review of 19 studies assessed outcomes following oesophageal reconstruction across three surgical techniques.
The findings suggest that colonic interposition and jejunal flap can provide non-inferior outcomes when gastric pull-up is not feasible.
