[Analysis of postoperative quality of life in patients with middle thoracic esophageal carcinoma undergoing minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy].
[esophageal carcinoma]
To
compare
the
effect
of
minimally
invasive
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
with
traditional
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
on
the
quality
of
life
in
patients
with
middle
thoracic
esophageal
carcinoma
.
Retrospective
analysis
was
performed
on
121
patients
with
middle
thoracic
esophageal
carcinoma
,
of
whom
sixty
patients
underwent
minimally
invasive
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
(
endoscopic
group
)
and
sixty-
one
patients
underwent
traditional
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
(
open
group
)
.
All
the
items
of
EORTC
questionnaire
QLQ-
C
3
0
,
seven
items
of
QLQ-OES
18
and
two
additional
items
(
right
upper
limbs
activity
obstacle
and
numbness
of
right
chest
wall
)
were
used
to
evaluate
the
quality
of
life
.
The
scores
of
global
quality
of
life
,
physical
functioning
,
role
functioning
,
social
functioning
,
fatigue
,
pain
,
dyspnea
and
troublesome
coughing
were
more
favourable
in
endoscopy
group
than
those
in
open
group
at
4
-
week
and
12
-
week
after
operation
(
P
<
0
.
05
)
.
However
,
the
advantage
of
endoscopy
group
only
sustained
in
global
quality
of
life
,
physical
functioning
and
fatigue
at
24
-
week
after
operation
(
P
<
0
.
05
)
.
Furthermore
,
the
scores
of
pain
,
right
upper
limbs
activity
obstacle
and
numbness
of
right
chest
wall
were
less
in
endoscopy
group
than
those
in
open
group
at
4
-
week
,
12
-
week
and
24
-
week
after
operation
.
Minimally
invasive
Ivor
-
Lewis
esophagectomy
is
associated
with
less
trauma
,
shorter
time
of
recovery
and
better
postoperative
quality
of
life
.
