Abstract:

Objective

To explore the feasibility and safety of the radical surgery for esophageal carcinoma with thoracoscopy and laparoscopy and 2 .5-field lymphadenectomy in treatment of esophageal cancer of elderly patients .

Methods

We collected the clinical data and retrospectively analyzed the data of 179 patients of esophageal cancer who underwent radical resection of esophageal carcinoma with thoracoscopy and laparoscopy from December 2014 to December 2016 .The patients were treated in 2 .5-field lymphadenectomy in left decubitus position by single lumen endotracheal intubation , artificial pneumothorax ,and intraoperative esophageal suspension ,and through cervicothoracic recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph node dissection .52 patients aged 65 and over are in the elderly group and the non-elderly group are 127 patients aged less than 65 .Intraoperative and postoperative data were compared between the two groups .

Results

Operations in two groups were all completed successfully ,with no conversion to thoracotomy or laparotomy . The total complication ratio , postopetative hospitalization duration and hospitalization costs were significantly higher in the elderly group than in the non-elderly group( P<0 .05) .But differences were not statistically significant ( P>0 .05)in the amount of blood loss ,thoracic drainage volume ,the total number of lymph node dissection ,the number of positive lymph nodes ,lymph node metastasis rate , periopetative mortality , and rehospitalization rate .

Conclusions

The radical resection of esophageal carcinoma with thoracoscopy and laparoscopy was safe and feasible to use 2 .5-field lymphadenectomy in the treatment of esophageal cancer of elderly patients assisted by the methods of left decubitus position ,single lumen endotracheal intubation ,artificial pneumothorax ,intraoperative esophageal suspension and through cervicothoracic recurrent laryngeal nerve lymph nodes dissection .The 101 group of lymph nodes dissection below bilateral inferior thyroid artery can be completed under thoracoscopy . The further follow-up was needed for long-term survival outcomes .
