Abstract:
Objective The difficulty of full thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis is the lack of a safe and low cost anastomosis.By improving the surgical process,to explore the application of circular stapler in the intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis.The thoracoscopic operation mode of esophageal cancer changes from simply following the McKoewn procedure to Ivor-Lewis and McKoewn procedure.Methods Retrospective analysis 123 cases of implementation thoracoscopic esophageal cancer from July 2009 to February 2013,which including the cases of intrathoracic anastomosis and cervical anastomosis.Divided it into two groups:intrathoracic anastomosis groups,which including thoracoscopic esophagectomy resection,gastroesophageal anastomosis and anastomotic pedicled omentum embedding,the cervical anastomosis groups,which including thoracoscopic esophageal free and gastroesophageal neck anastomosis.To comparing the incidence of ARDS,postoperative hoarseness,anastomotic complications (Anastomotic leakage and anastomotic strictures within two months after surgery),guardianship time of ICU and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups.Results All the patients were no deaths.The cervical anastomosis group operative time was significantly lower than the intrathoracic anastomosis group.The incidence of anastomotic fistula and anastomotic stricture of intrathoracic anastomosis group was significantly lower than that of the cervical anastomosis group,total hospitalization time of the intrathoracic anastomosis group were significantly lower than that of the cervical anastomosis group,there is no significant differences in postoperative hoarseness and ARDS incidence between the two groups.Conclusion For the lower esophageal carcinoma,it is technically mature and safe to apply the circular stapler for Ivor-Lewis surgery and sleeve omentumembedding anastomotic technique in full thoracoscopic,and the technology should be widely applied; for the upper esophagealcarcinoma,McKoewn procedure should be applied.
