The esophagectomy might have been done for some malignant condition of esophagus,and some by-pass or end-to-end anastomosis might have been done,whichyou have not mentioned.The surgical procedure may be associated with post-surical complication of GER which should be treated.The lower abdominal pain may be due to some secondaries in the GIT,may be lower GIT in this case,which should be evaluated by SURGICAL GASTRO-ENTEROLOGIST.
