Abstract
Objectives: Evaluating the results of thoraco-laparoscopic esophagectomy to treat esophageal cancer, prospective studies of 35 patients esophageal cancer were conducted from January 2016 to December 2019 at Hue Central Hospital.
Results: Average age 57.6±6.3 years (44-69), male/female 16.5/1. Clinical symptoms: 82.9% swallowing difficulty, weight loss 34.3%, increased preoperative CEA 31.4%, mean tumor size 2.6±1.2 cm (3-6). Stage: I 31.4%; II 45.7%; III of 22.9%. Time of surgery 315.2±49.9 minutes (240-420), mean hospital stay 15.6±7.2days(7-25). Postoperative complications: pneumonia 11.4% , leakage of neck anastomosis 8.6%, hoarseness 11.4% and mortality 2.9%. Follow-up time 2-35 months, anastomotic recurrence 2.9%, local recurrence 5.9% and metastasis 8.8%. The overal survival time 28.4±1.9 months, the survival time after 12 months 84.7% and after 2 years 73.9%.
Conclusion: Thoraco-laparoscopic esophagectomy to treat esophageal cancer has many advantages, avoiding to the long thoracotomy-laparotomy, reducing postoperative pain, reducing respiratory complications during the postoperative period. However, a larger number of patients should be studied to accurately evaluate long-term results, especially in oncology results.
