Abstract:
Objective:To analyze effects of esophageal suspension on left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node dissection ,operation duration ,and perioperative morbidity in minimally invasive esophageal surgery .Methods:Clinical data of 145 patients with esophageal cancer treated by minimally invasive surgery in Zhongshan Hospital ,Fudan University ,from Jan . to Dec .2015 were retrospectively analyzed ,including 71 cases of esophageal suspension in left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymphadenectomy and other 74 cases of conventional methods .Results:Compared with the conventional method group ,left laryngeal recurrent nerve lymph node dissection number of the esophageal suspension group (2 .55 ± 0 .20 vs 1 .46 ± 0 .22 , P< 0 .05) increased significantly ,operation time ([262 .60 ± 6 .44] min vs [265 .60 ± 6 .17] min) and dissection time ([9 .90 ± 0 .34] min vs [9 .60 ± 0 .36] min) did not increase significantly ,and the related complications such as irreversible injury in recurrent laryngeal nerve and thoracic duct injury did not increase .Conclusions:Esophageal suspension in minimally invasive esophageal surgery helps improve the quality of left recurrent laryngeal nerve lymphadenectomy without increasing operation duration and perioperative morbidity .
