Abstract
Oral feeding must be discontinued for a long time after esophageal surgery (about 12 days without complications). During this period, the problem is to maintain a proper nutritional status. In this aim, it is possible to utilize the lower part of the alimentary tract. Therefore, our study presents early postoperative nutrition via a jejunostomy catheter which is systematically installed at the end of the procedure [2].
