Intrathoracic Anastomosis Or Cervical Anastomosis For Esophagogastric Junction Cancer Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study
INTERNATIONAL SURGERY(2019)
摘要
Aims: This study aimed to determine the degree of reflux esophagitis after either intrathoracic or cervical esophagogastrostomy in patients with esophagogastric junction carcinoma.Patients and Methods: The study population consisted of 10 and 15 consecutive patients who underwent esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction via intrathoracic (Ivor Lewis) or cervical (McKeown) esophagogastrostomy, respectively. Reflux esophagitis was evaluated annually after surgery and scored on a 0- to 4-point scale corresponding to grades N/M, A, B, C, and D, respectively. The reflux esophagitis score of each patient, defined as the average of scores at 1, 2, and 3 years after surgery, was compared between the groups.Results: Of the 30 planned annual endoscopic follow-ups (3 years in 10 patients) in the Ivor Lewis group and 45 planned follow-ups (3 years in 15 patients) in the McKeown group, 24 and 29 such follow-ups were performed in the Ivor Lewis and McKeown groups, respectively. The reflux esophagitis score was significantly better in the McKeown group than in the Ivor Lewis group (0.51 +/- 0.24 versus 1.46 +/- 0.29, P = 0.019). Overall survival did not significantly differ between the Ivor Lewis and McKeown groups (respective 5-year survival rates, 64% versus 57%, P = 0.75).Conclusions: The degree of reflux esophagitis may be greater in patients with esophagogastric junction cancer treated by Ivor Lewis esophagectomy than in those treated by McKeown esophagectomy. McKeown esophagectomy might be a more suitable method for the treatment of esophagogastric junction cancer with extended esophageal invasion.
