Minimally Invasive Intrathoracic Esophagogastric Side to Side Anastomosis vs. End to Side Anastomosis

On the basis of minimally invasive Ivor Lewis operation for the treatment of lower thoracic esophageal cancer or esophageal gastric junction cancer, the purpose of this study is to compare the probability of anastomotic leakage and stenosis after esophagogastric side to side anastomosis and esophagogastric end to side anastomosis, combined with the probability of complications, quality of life and survival rate of patients after the two anastomotic methods, To explore which anastomotic method is better than the worse for patients with lower thoracic esophageal cancer or cancer at the junction of esophagus and stomach. This study explored a minimally invasive anastomotic method with lower incidence of complications and higher quality of life for patients during Ivor Lewis surgery, which can increase the clinical benefits of patients, improve the quality of life, and extend the survival period, and has important clinical value.
