Abstract

Objective: Evaluate early results of thoracoscopic esophagectomy and 2-field lymph node dissection for esophageal cancer in the middle and lower 1/3 of the thoracic.


Research objects and methods: cross-sectional, prospective, descriptive study. 70 patients with esophageal cancer in the middle 1/3 and lower 1/3 of the thoracic underwent thoracoscopic  esophagectomy and 2-field lymph node dissection at Central Hospital 108 and Hospital 103 from June 2022 to June 2024.


Results: Mean age 59.0 ± 7.9 years old, male: 100%, preoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy: (77.1%). Tumor location: middle 1/3: 61.4%, lower 1/3: 38.6%. The average surgery time is 254.3 ± 34.9 minutes, the amount of blood loss is 80 (50 – 100) ml. The abdomenal step was treated with laparoscopic surgery and assisted laparoscopic surgery accounting for 90%. Complications: 5 patients (7.1%), 1.4% had lung parenchymal injury, 4.3% had thoracic duct injury, 1.4% of Azygos vein injury. The average number of lymph nodes removed was 25.0 (20.8 – 34), the lymph node metastasis rate was 3.7%. General complications account for 35.7%, mortality was 2.9%, respiratory complications was 17.1%, anastomotic leakage was 7.1%, chylothorax was 2.9%, and recurrent nerve damage was 14.3%. Postoperative hospital stay was 11.0 (9-14) days.


Conclusion: Thoracoscopic esophagectomy and 2-field lymph node dissection for esophageal cancer in the middle and lower 1/3 of the thoracic is safe and feasible, early post-operative recovery, and low complication rate.
