 In TPLE + FJT, a jejunal ischemia time of up to 4 hours had no effect on perioperative complications or postoperative dysphagia. The TPLE + FJT technique, involving a jejunal anastomosis first followed by vascular anastomosis, benefits from an easier jejunal anastomosis but suffers from a longer jejunal ischemia time. However, we found that ischemia time does not pose significant problems, although we have not evaluated the effects of jejunal ischemia extending beyond 4 hours.
