Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative complications

    Complications related to fluid imbalance and portal hypertension, such as ascites, pleural effusion, and chyle leak; complications associated with impaired renal or hematologic function, including acute kidney injury, bleeding, and graft failure; and complications reflecting immune dysfunction and infection susceptibility, including pneumonia and empyema. Complications associated with impaired tissue healing, such as anastomotic leakage, were also analyzed. Liver failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome were considered separately. All complications were defined according to the Esophageal Complications Consensus Group, and their severity was assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.

    within 90 days after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall survival

    10 years after surgery

Study Arms (1)
