Abstract
The appropriate management of postoperative upper alimentary tract fistula (UATF) remains uncertain. The efficacy of esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) tissue glue repair in the treatment of patients with postoperative UATF was explored. We also conducted a systematic review of the literature regarding the inpatient management of UATF.
