Abstract:
Objective To investigate the application value of closed single-port thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.Methods The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted.The clinical data of a 49-year-old male patient with esophageal cancer who was admitted to the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital in November 2018 were collected.The patient underwent closed single-port thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy and three-field lymph node dissection.In the thoracic part,esophageal separation and thoracic lymph node dissection were performed with closed pneumothorax,semi-lateral position and multi suspension methods.In the abdominal part,gastric separation and lymph node dissection were accomplished with lifting of liver lobe and respective separation of greater curvature and lesser curvature of stomach.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,time for out-of-bed activities,time of postoperative drainage tube removal,volume of thoracic drainage fluid,postoperative complications,postoperative pathological examination results,time for discharge from hospital and results of follow-up were observed.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect tumor recurrence and metastasis of patients after operation up to February 2019.Count data were described as absolute number.Results The patient underwent successfully closed single-port thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esophagectomy and three-field lymph node dissection.The operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss was 310 minutes and 120 mL.The patient resumed out-of-bed activities at 2 days after operation.The abdominal drainage tube,thoracic closed drainage tube and right cervical drainage tube were removed at 2 days after operation with fasting,acid suppression,nutritional support.The thoracic Abel drainage tube and the left cervical drainage tube were removed at 5 days after operation.The volume of thoracic drainage fluid was 550 mL.No obvious sign of anastomotic leakage was found on esophageal angiography at 5 days after operation.The patient recovered well after operation without hoarseness,pulmonary infection and chylothorax.The postoperative examination result of the patient showed midthoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (pT3N1M0G3 ⅢB stage).The patient was discharged at 8 days after operation.The patient was followed up for 3 months,and was able to engage in light physical activity.CT reexamination showed no sign of local recurrence or distant metastasis of the tumor.Conclusion Closed singleport thoracoscopic and laparoscopic radical esopahgectomy for esophageal cancer is safe and feasible,with good short-term efficacy.
