Fig 1 (A) A pursestring (blue) is hand sewn through the muscular layer (grey) of the esophagus, which is 5–8 cm proximal to the esophageal cancer. (B) An incision is made in the esophageal wall 2–3 cm distal to the pursestring. (C) The anvil head is inserted through the incision and pushed above the pursestring. The pursestring is tied, and the transection line (dotted line) is determined. (D) The mucosal (red) and muscular (grey) layers are transected separately, and the stump mucosa is retained 5 mm longer than the adjacent muscular layer.
