抄録

Total laryngo-pharyngo-esophagectomy (TLPE) with gastric pull-up reconstruction is still considered to be associated with major complications and a significant risk of in-hospital death. Minimally invasive esophagectomy, avoiding thoracotomy and laparotomy, has been increasingly performed for esophageal malignancies with the hope of reducing mortality and morbidity, such as pulmonary complications. The aim in this study was to assess early and long-term morbidity as well as treatment outcomes in patients treated with TLPE with gastric pull-up reconstruction via thoracoscopy, laparoscopy and cervical incision. From 2004 to 2013, 10 patients with a median age of 64 years (range 47-71 years) underwent minimally invasive TPLE with gastric pull-up reconstruction. Seven of the 10 patients had previously received radiotherapy. As for early postoperative complications, no patient died during the early postoperative period, and pneumonia was observed in 1, skin necrosis in 1, pseudomembranous enterocolitis in 1, arrhythmia in 2, hemorrhage in the neck in 2, anastomotic leakage in the neck in 3, and tracheal necrosis in 6 patients. Three patients developed tracheostomal stenosis as a long-term postoperative complication, and an anastomotic stricture was observed in one patient. All patients were able to achieve oral intake, but 3 patients required feeding tube support. In conclusion, postoperative systemic complications during the early postoperative period were considered to be acceptable, although wound complications such as tracheal necrosis and anastomotic leakage were commonly observed. Therefore, this minimally invasive procedure might help reduce mortality and morbidity in patients requiring TLPE with gastric pull-up reconstruction.
