Abstract: In numerous digestive reconstruction techniques after proximal gastrectomy for tumor of the gastroesophageal junction, widely used methods are esophagogastrostomy, esophagogastric tube reconstruction and jejunalinterposition reconstruction. More studies have been focused on jejunalinterposition reconstruction in recent years, from which a variety of modified reconstructions derive. In clinical practice, a flexible choice is needed according to the actual situation of patients.
