“…Other series of 'MIO' report hybrid procedures in which the gastric tube was formed after exteriorization through a minilaparotomy 27,28 . The mortality rate of MIO in the present series is in keeping with all of these publications.…”

“…Nguyen et al 26 reported an overall mortality rate of 4·3 per cent. In a series of 130 patients undergoing resection for mid-third squamous tumours, in whom the gastric tube was formed with an exteriorized stomach, Palanivelu et al 27 reported a perioperative mortality rate of 1·5 per cent. No deaths were reported in a smaller series of 23 patients who had MIO with a minilaparotomy for gastric tube formation 28 .…”

“…An appropriate balance has to be struck between width of the gastric tube and clearance (only two of 64 patients with invasive carcinoma had a positive distal margin). Extracorporeal gastric tubularization series have reported leak rates between 2·3 and 9 per cent 27,28 .…”

Background: Minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO; thoracoscopy, laparoscopy, cervical anastomosis) is a complex procedure and few substantial series have been published. This study documented the morbidity, mortality and challenges of adopting MIO in a specialist unit in the UK. Conclusion: MIO can be performed with acceptable mortality and morbidity rates in an unselected series of patients. There was more morbidity related to gastric tube ischaemia than was expected.

“…TE is performed with the patient in the left lateral decubitus position (22)(23)(24) or prone position (9,(25)(26)(27). At our institute, we select to perform TE with the patient in the prone position because of its convenience for effective visualization of the mediastinum, and because accumulation of blood in the operating field is rare.…”

“…Accordingly, there has recently been a movement to determine the feasibility, postoperative results, and potential advantages of minimally invasive approaches. MIE, compared with OE, theoretically offers advantages, such as decreased morbidity, shorter hospital stay, and more rapid return to daily activities (7). Since several techniques are considered to be MIE (thoracoscopic, laparoscopic, mediastinoscopic, hybrid, total, and robotic-assisted MIE, etc.…”

Clinical outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery esophagectomy for esophageal cancer: a propensity score-matched analysis

et al. 2017

Results: Matching based on propensity scores produced 42 patients in each group for the analysis.After propensity matching, there were only two operative mortalities in the OE group, and both died of postoperative pneumonia. The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 38.1% (16 of 42) and 57.1% (24 of 42) in the VE group and in the OE group, respectively (P=0.088). The incidence of pulmonary complications was lower in the VE group than in the OE group (9.5% vs. 40.5%, P=0.004). The 2-year overall survival and disease-free survival were not different between the two groups (74.4% and 69.5% in the VE group, 69.5% and 69.8% in the OE group, P=0.865 and P=0.513, respectively). Conclusions:In select patients, superior short-term surgical results and equal oncological outcomes were achieved with VE compared with OE.
