A Risk Model for Esophagectomy Using Data of 5354 Patients Included in a Japanese Nationwide Web-Based Database

Abstract: This study was the first, as per our knowledge, to perform risk stratification for esophagectomy using a Japanese nationwide database. The 30-day and operative mortality rates were relatively lower than those in previous reports. The risk models developed in this study may contribute toward improvements in quality control of procedures and creation of a novel scoring system.

“…Therefore, the oncological benefit of reducing postoperative inflammation in esophageal cancer should be investigated 27. Based on risk stratification for esophagectomy using a Japanese nationwide database, Takeuchi et al 34. observed that the 30‐day and operative mortality rates were lower than those in previously published reports.…”

“…All eligible studies reported adjusted hazard ratios obtained using multivariate analysis; the overall hazard ratio was 1.59 (95% CI, 1.13–2.24), with a statistically significant heterogeneity ( P  < 0.0001). In each study, postoperative complications were defined by a Clavien‐Dindo grade higher than II,34, 35, 36, 37 which was observed in 10.3–14.5% of the studied patients. There were no apparent differences between the incidences of postoperative complications among large‐volume institutions in Japan.…”

“…However, the operation time of minimally invasive technique is significantly longer than that of open procedure, and mortality is not significantly different in two procedures. In Japanese nationwide study, the minimally invasive esophagectomy related longer operation time and less blood loss [22]. However, incidence of anastomotic leakage and reoperation rate within 30 days were significantly higher in the minimally invasive esophagectomy than in the open esophagectomy.…”

“…The balance between the benefits (quality of local control) and disadvantages (postoperative morbidity) of each procedure is of importance on the basis of the aforementioned results. Interestingly, the minimally invasive approach using thoracoscopy was not associated with reduced pulmonary complications as compared with conventional transthoracic esophagectomy according to the Japanese nationwide database (14). Therefore, the TH approach itself appears to be beneficial in terms of reducing pulmonary complications, and minimally invasive TH esophagectomy is likely to present future challenges in managing AEG patients.…”
