Abstract:

Objective

To summarize the conditions of reflux after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer using stomach tube, and investigate the influence of stomach tube width on reflux after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.

Methods

According to the order of admission, 60 patientsundergoing esophagectomy for esophageal cancer using stomach tube were randomly divided into group A (stomach tube width ≥ 3 cm, 30 cases) and group B (stomach tube width <3 cm, 30 cases). Eleven to fourteen days after recovery of intestinal function, 24 h esophageal pH monitoring was conducted.

Results

The times of reflux, times of reflux >5 min, time of pH<4.00 and longest reflux time in group A were significantly larger or longer than those in group B(t=2.735, P=0.012; t=4.502, P=0.001; t=3.435, P=0.023; t=4.286, P=0.002).

Conclusions

Stomach tube width may influence the occurrence of reflux, and thin stomachtube can reduce the reflux after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.

Key words: Gastroesophageal reflux, Esophageal cancer, pH monitoring, Stomach tube
