Abstract:Background: The incidence of anastomotic leakage (AL) following esophagectomy is regarded as a noteworthy complication. There is a need for biomarkers to facilitate early diagnosis of AL in high-risk esophageal cancer (EC) patients, thereby minimizing its morbidity and mortality. We assessed the predictive abilities of inflammatory biomarkers for AL in patients after esophagectomy.
Methods: In order to ascertain the predictive efficacy of biomarkers for AL, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) cu… Show more
