The development of new surgical instruments and devices has facilitated the performance of esophagojejunostomy after total gastrectomy. However, total prevention of dehiscence of anastomoses remains difficult. We introduced a new procedure for esophagojejunostomy using a circular stapler, requiring sacrifice of only a small part of the jejunum.
