NCT01696682

Brief Summary

The study hypothesized that a narrow gastric conduit(less than 3cm in width) would minimize anastomotic leakage following minimally invasive esophagectomy. Therefore we raise this random-controlled research, and investigate the leakage ratio from different widths of gastric conduit formed during the operation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The anastomotic leakage rate

    The anastomotic leakage is a severe complication following minimally invasive esophagectomy. The definition of anastomotic leakage is determined as per the STS (SOCIETY OF THORACIC SURGEONS) database.

    the anastomotic leakage of participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 2 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Narrow Gastric Conduit

EXPERIMENTAL

The group in which narrowed gastric conduit will be performed during minimally invasive esophagectomy

Procedure: Narrowed Gastric Conduit

Wide Gastric Conduit

EXPERIMENTAL

The group in which widened gastric conduit will be performed during minimally invasive esophagectomy

Procedure: Widened Gastric Conduit

Interventions

The gastric conduit will be formed much narrower in the intervention arm during minimally invasive esophagectomy

Also known as: Narrowed Gastric Tube
Narrow Gastric Conduit

A widened gastric tube will be formed during the surgery

Also known as: Wide Gastric Tube
Wide Gastric Conduit

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy(three-hole procedure)
  • Clinical Staged T1-3N0M0 esophageal cancer patients or: patients who were restaged as T1-3N0M0 esophageal cancer after neo-adjuvant therapy

You may not qualify if:
