摘　　要：BACKGROUND Gastrografin swallow,methylthioninium chloride test,and computed tomography(CT)are the main methods for postoperative anastomotic fistula detection.Correct selection and application of examinations and therapies are significant for the early diagnosis and treatment of small anastomotic fistulas after radical gastrectomy,which are conducive to postoperative recovery.CASE SUMMARY A 44-year-old woman underwent radical total gastrectomy for laparoscopic gastric cancer.The patient developed a fever after surgery.The methylthioninium chloride test and early CT suggested no anastomotic fistula,but gastrografin swallow and late CT showed the opposite result.The fistula was successfully closed using an endoscopic clip.The methylthioninium chloride test,gastrografin,and CT performed on different postoperative dates for small esophagojejunostomy fistulas are different.The size of the anastomotic fistula is an important factor for the success of endoscopic treatment.CONCLUSION The advantages and limitations of the diagnosis of different examinations of small esophagojejunostomy fistulas are noteworthy.The size of the leakage of the anastomosis is an important basis for selecting the repair method.
