Hybrid Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
It is found that hybrid minimally invasive esophagectomy resulted in a lower incidence of intraoperative and postoperative major complications, specifically pulmonary complications, than open esophageal cancer, without compromising overall and disease‐free survival over a period of 3 years.
Abstract
Background Postoperative complications, especially pulmonary complications, affect more than half the patients who undergo open esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. Whether hybrid minimall...

Recent progress in multidisciplinary treatment for patients with esophageal cancer

TL;DR: This review focuses on eight topics within the multidisciplinary approach for esophageal cancer, and induction chemotherapy followed by esophagectomy may improve the outcomes of patients with locally advanced unresectable tumors and CRT is a curative-intent alternative to esophAGectomy.

Laparoscopic Versus Open Pancreaticoduodenectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

TL;DR: At current level of evidence, LPD shows no advantage over OPD and further studies should focus on patient safety during LPD learning curves and the potential role of robotic surgery.

A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Physical Exercise Prehabilitation in Major Abdominal Surgery (PROSPERO 2017 CRD42017080366)

TL;DR: Prehabilitation including a physical exercise intervention may lead to a reduction of postoperative pulmonary complications as well as less overall morbidity compared with standard care in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery.

Long-term Survival in Esophageal Cancer After Minimally Invasive Compared to Open Esophagectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the existing literature comparing long-term survival after minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and open esophagaectomy (OE), and conduct a meta-analysis based on relevant studies.
