Thoracoscopic esophagectomy using prone positioning.
Thoracotomic esophagectomy followed by cervical and abdominal procedures has been conventionally performed as the best curable operative procedure for treating invasive thoracic esophageal carcinoma. Despite improvements in the survival rate, the procedure is associated with significant operative morbidity and mortality rates due to the extreme invasiveness of an extensive dissection of the lym...
متن کاملComparison of the short-term postoperative results of prone positioning and lateral decubitus positioning during thoracoscopic esophagectomy
INTRODUCTION The conventional approach during thoracoscopic esophagectomy was performed in the left lateral decubitus position (LLDP). Recently, thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position (PP) has attracted the attention of surgeons. AIM To report institutional experience with thoracoscopic esophagectomy in PP and compare it with the conventional LLDP approach. MATERIAL AND METHODS W...
متن کاملAssistant-based standardization of prone position thoracoscopic esophagectomy.
Thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position (TEPP) might enable solo-surgery in cases requiring resection of the esophagus and the surrounding lymph nodes due to the associated advantages of good exposure of the surgical field and ergonomic considerations for the surgeon. However, no one approach can be for all patients requiring extensive lymphadenectomy. We recently developed an assista...
متن کاملEffective Mediastinal Lymphadenectomy for Esophageal Cancer Using Slender Tracheal Forceps in Prone Position Thoracoscopic Esophagectomy.
BACKGROUND/AIM Adequate mediastinal lymphadenectomy during thoracoscopic esophagectomy (TE) requires an extensive operating field. In order to rectify this problem, we developed slender tracheal forceps that can pass through a 12-mm trocar. PATIENTS AND METHODS TE in the prone position was performed in 58 patients with esophageal cancer using slender tracheal forceps. Perioperative and postop...
متن کاملThoracoscopic Esophagectomy in Supine Position
Background: Esophageal cancer needs major surgery due to its anatomic position, which is followed by high morbidity in most patients. Thoracotomy, a previously used method, was accompanied by high pulmonary complications, had physical limitations, and low tolerance of patients. Thoracoscopic esophagectomy is a new suitable method with less morbidity. Objectives: The present study aimed to inves...
