Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of tubular stomach reconstruction on respiratory function and serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) level in patients with esophageal cancer.Methods 84 patients with esophagealcancer were randomIy divided into two groups.42 patients in the observation group were operated through tubular stomach reconstruction,while 42 patients in the control group were operated through full stomach and esophagus reconstruction of digestive tract.The respiratory function and serum VEGF were detected in all patients.Results The respiratory function was significantly declined after operation compared with before operation (P < 0.05).The respiratory function was significantly improved postoperative two months compared with before operation (P < 0.05,P <0.01),there was a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05).Serum VEGF level was significantly decreased after operation in both two groups (P < 0.0 1).Serum VEGF level of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Tubular stomach reconstruction can improve respiratory function and prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer.
