After a worsening of the postoperative course and evidence at the CT scan and endoscopy of highly suspect gastric conduit failure, the patient underwent an exploratory thoracoscopy, which revealed a partial dehiscence of the gastric conduit treated with resection of the dehiscent gastric wall by a linear stapler on the guide of a 36-french orogastric tube. Patient had a regular postoperative course without any complications and was discharged on the 6th postoperative day.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The management of conduit necrosis is extremely challenging.
