The results of oesophageal resection with one-staged oesophagogastroplasty were studied up in 108 patients. The mechanical suture failure occurred in 12 (16.4%) of 73 patients, after the manual-forming anastomosis conduction this complication did not occur. The method of the anastomosis forming using one-raw manual suture with plication by anterior gastric wall proved to be the most secure one. Application of this method together with prophylaxis of thromboembolic and respiratory disorders have permitted to reduce mortality by 2.5 times.
