Background Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) is being increasingly performed; however, it is still associated with high morbidity and mortality. The correlation between surgical team proficiency and patient load lacks clarity. This study evaluates surgical outcomes during the first 3-year period after establishment of a new surgical team. Methods A new surgical team was established in September...
Background The aim of the study was to assess serum C-reactive protein (CRP) level immediately after minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) as a surrogate of surgical invasiveness in patients who underwent esophagectomy. Methods In total, 104 patients were enrolled in the study: 37 patients underwent MIE in the left lateral decubitus position (MIE-LP) and 67 patients underwent MIE in the prone position...
Background This study aimed to compare the extent of lateral thermal spread of surrounding tissues after the use of advanced bipolar and ultrasonic coagulation and shearing devices. Association between recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis (RLNP) and such devices was assessed in patients who underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE). Methods LigaSure™ (LS) and Sonicision™ (SONIC) were used...
