AB Transhiatal  esophagectomy  with  cervical  esophagogastrostomy  is  indicated  for  most  conditions  that  require  esophageal  resection  and  reconstruction.  Common  indications  include  carcinoma  of  the  esophagus  or  gastroesophageal  junction,  end-stage  achalasia,  and  severe  esophageal  strictures  refractory  to  endoscopic  dilation.  This  approach  may  be  utilized  for  primary  resection  of  early  stage  cancers  or  Barrett’s  esophagus  with  multifocal  high-grade  dysplasia  as  well  as  following  neoadjuvant  chemoradiation  for  locally  advanced  cancers.
