Perioperative anesthetic management for esophagectomy / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

Esophageal cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.A single intraoperative intervention is unlikely to benefit the outcome.A multimodal management plan that includes the use of TEA seems to demonstrate improved results in high-volume centers.Anesthetic management may contribute to the containment of pulmonary morbidity and anastomotic leakage by the use of TEA,protective ventilation strategies during OLV,prevention of tracheal aspiration,and judicious fluid management.
