Official title
A Prospective Observational Cohort Study of Patients Undergoing Non-gastric Conduit Reconstruction After Esophagectomy to Assess Surgical Outcomes
Overview
This study is to collect and analyze the clinical information of patients who underwent reconstruction using conduits other than the stomach, such as the colon and small intestine, after esophagectomy. Currently, reconstruction after esophagectomy is mainly performed using the stomach, and there is very little information on reconstruction using the colon and small intestine. Therefore, this study aims to collect information on patients who underwent reconstruction using conduits other than the stomach, analyze the surgical performance, find clinical improvements, and build a foundation for future clinical quality improvement.
Primary outcome measures
- anastomotic leakage rate [Time frame: From enrollment to 6 months after esophagectomy]
- rate of conduit necrosis [Time frame: From enrollment to 6 months after esophagectomy]
