Esophagectomy For Cancer

Background: Intrathoracic esophagogastrostomy plays an important role in minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy for cancer. Intrathoracic anastomosis with robot-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy (RAILE) includes hand-sewn and circular stapler methods, which remain technically challenging. In this study, we modified the techniques for intrathoracic anastomosis at RAILE, in order to simplify the complex procedures. Methods: “Side-insertion” technique was used for anvil placement and purse string suture for intrathoracic anastomosis at RAILE. Medical records for consecutive patients who had undergone robot-assisted minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy for cancer between January 2015 and June 2018 were analyzed. Results: A total of consecutive 31 patients were enrolled. There was no conversion to open thoracotomy in this cohort. Mean operation duration in the robotic group was 387.4 ± 68.2 min. Median estimated blood loss was 110 mL (range 50–400 mL). Two patients (6.5%) had postoperative anastomotic leak. No postoperative reoperation was needed and there were no mortality. Six patients (19.4%) had anastomotic stricture and 2 patients of them needed endoscopic dilation. Conclusion: RAILE is safe and feasible. Our modified procedure highlighting the “side-insertion” method may simplify the process of intrathoracic anvil placement and purse string suture for anastomosis at RAILE.

Abstract Background The intrathoracic esophagogastrostomy played important role in minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy for cancer. The methods of intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis at robot-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy mostly included hand-sewn, and circular stapler (anvil placement via OrVil system or transthoracically), which were still technically challenging. In this study, we modified the techniques of intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis at robot-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy for cancer, in order to seek to simplify this complicated intrathoracic procedure. Then retrospective comparison between robotic and thoracoscopic cohorts was conducted. Methods We modified techniques focused on the ‘side-insertion’ anvil placement and purse string suture of intrathoracic robot-assisted esophagogastric anastomosis. The consecutive records of patients who underwent minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy for cancer via robot-assistant and thoracoscopic procedures in our department between January 2015 and November 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Totally 47 patients were enrolled including 20 patients (male: 17, female: 3) in robot-assisted group and 27 patients (male: 21, female: 6) in thoracoscopic group. There was no conversion to open thoracotomy in both two groups. Mean operation duration of robotic group was 412.5 ± 63.5 min, significantly higher than 363.0 ± 53.3 min in thoracoscopic group (P = 0.006). Estimated blood loss in robotic group was less than that in thoracoscopic group (107.5 ± 63.5ml vs. 188.9 ± 94.3ml, respectively, P = 0.002). One patient (5.0%) in robotic group and two patients(7.4%) in thoracoscopic group had anastomotic leak. No postoperative reoperation or mortality (in-hospital or within 30 days after surgery) occurred in both groups. Conclusion Robot-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy was safe and feasible. Our modified procedure highlighting the ‘side-insertion’ method could simplify the process of intrathoracic anvil placement and purse string suture for the robot-assisted esophagogastric anastomosis. Robot-assisted Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy was nearly equivalent to thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy at short-term outcomes, except higher operation time and less blood loss.
