Abstract:
Objective To investigate the short-term clinical efficacy and complication of esophageal cancer patients with two-field lymph node dissection by thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy surgery and open surgery. Methods One hundred and fifty esophageal cancer patients with two-field lymph node dissection were selected, and they were divided into control group (using open surgery, 75 cases) and observation group (using thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy surgery, 75 cases) by random digits table method. The operation time, bleeding amount, hospital staying time, number of lymph node dissection, reoperation rate, intensive care unit (ICU) transferring rate and postoperative complication were compared. Results There was no statistical difference in operation time between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The bleeding amount and hospital staying time in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group: (210.33 ± 30.71) ml vs. (254.59±35.28) ml and (8.45±1.52) d vs. (11.61±2.08) d, there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The number of chest lymph node dissection in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group:(17.20±4.06) pieces vs. (10.44±2.65) pieces, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in reoperation rate and ICU transferring rate between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There were no statistical differences in incidences of hoarseness and anastomotic stenosis between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The incidences of pulmonary infection and arrhythmia in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group:17.33%(13/75) vs. 30.67%(23/75) and 2.67%(2/75) vs. 14.67%(11/75), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with open surgery, thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy surgery with two-field lymph node dissection for esophageal cancer patients can effectively reduce the degree of operative trauma, accelerate postoperative rehabilitation process, improve the effects of lymph node dissection, and reduce postoperative complication risk.
