Abstract Background Anastomotic leak (AL) remains a major cause of morbidity in upper-GI surgery. In many centers, endoluminal vacuum drainage (EVD) has become the mainstay of therapy for AL after esophageal and gastric resections. A new idea is to use the EVD technology in a preemptive setting. In this context, we present a case series of patients that received PEVD upon completion of the anastomosis during esophago-gastric surgery. Methods Intraoperative PEVD was performed in 10 consecutive patients undergoing minimally invasive esophagectomy with cervical (n = 1) or high intrathoracic (n = 6) anastomosis, and open transhiatally extended (n = 1) or minimally invasive (n = 2) total gastrectomy. The EVD device was removed after three to six (mean 4) days, and the anastomosis was endoscopically inspected for ischemia and AL. Additional contrast radiography, computed tomography, or gastroscopy to exclude AL was performed in seven patients. Primary endpoints in this retrospective series was AL; secondary endpoints were the postoperative morbidity measured by the Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification and the comprehensive complication index (CCI), all at 30 days after surgery. Results Perioperative mortality was 0% with uneventful anastomotic healing in all patients of this series (AL rate 0%, anastomotic stenosis 0%). There were no adverse events attributable to PEVD. None of the patients experienced major morbidity (> CD grade IIIa) during the postoperative course. The median postoperative ICU and hospital stay was 1 (IQR 1-1.75) and 14 (IQR 12-16) days, respectively. Five patients (50%) developed at least one complication, mostly related to infection (2 patients) and pulmonary events (2 patients). The mean CCI at 30 days after surgery was 13.7 (range 0-39.5). Conclusion PEVD appears to be a safe procedure that may emerge as a groundbreaking technology in patients undergoing esophageal or gastric resection. Further research is needed to elucidate the true potential of this technique. Disclosure All authors have declared no conflicts of interest.

Abstract Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is the standard treatment which recommended for resectable locally advanced esophageal cancer (EC), but the safety of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for esophageal cancer has not been reported. We investigated the effect of NAC on the safety and feasibility of MIE for EC.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the morbidity, mortality and oncologic outcomes of MIE after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective study of the patients who underwent MIE after neoadjuvant chemotherapy between August 2018 and May 2020. Patients with clinical stage IB, IIA, IIB, IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC EC, and no active concomitant malignancy were included. The data regarding the intraoperative incident, postoperative morbidity and mortality as well as oncologic examination were collected and analyzed. Results: From August 2018 to May 2020, 68 patients with EC have been included into the study. There were 66 males and 2 females with mean age of 58.1 ± 13.9 (42 – 77). Sixty-two patients had neoadjuvant with DCX, four patients were indicated for EOX therapy, and remained two patients were treated by PAR-CAR. Two patients with stage IB, 23 with stage IIA, 22 with stage IIB, 14 with stage IIIA, one with stage IIIB, and 6 with stage IIIC. Tumor located in middle thoracic esophagus was 34 (50%), lower thoracic esophagus was 32 (47.1%) and upper thoracic esophagus was 2 cases. Median operation time was 420 minutes with minimal blood loss. Median hospitalization duration was 11 days (7 – 31). Median lymph nodes harvested in cervical, mediastinal and abdominal fields was 10, 16 and 7 respectively. Twenty-seven (42.2%) patients had metastatic lymph nodes. Postoperative mortality was 1.5% (1 case). Overall morbidity was 33.8% included 6 cases complicated pneumonia, 9 cases with anastomotic leak (conservative treatment), 1 case was re-operated due to cervical lymph leak, 16 cases with temporary hoarse voice. Conclusion: Results from our study to conclude that MIE is safe and effective for locally advanced EC, even after NAC. Key word: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, minimally invasive esophagectomy, esophageal cancer.

Abstract   Since the initial description of laparoscopic fundoplication in 1991 for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, different minimally invasive procedures have been developed until nowadays, when esophagectomy is performed using combined thoracoscopy and laparoscopy. Objective: The aim of our study is to analyze the intraoperative complications of minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position. Methods Between November 2011 and January 2021, 70 patients underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position in the Hospital Interzonal General de Agudos General San Martín and private practice of La Plata city. Results During the abdominal stage one patient presented coronary vessel injury and the other with short vessel injury. The complications occurring in the thoracic stage included lung injury, azygos arch injury, thoracic duct section, laryngeal recurrent nerve lesion, main stem bronchus injury, and pericardium lesion, during lymph node resection. Most of these complications occurred in the first 30 patients, while in the remaining 40 cases only two complications (p value = 0.4). Conclusion Minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position is a feasible and safe procedure that can cause serious intraoperative complications due to its complexity. Although the results of our series did not show statistically significant differences, the number of complications during surgeries performed by the same team showed an important reduction associated with better training.

Objective: The aim of our study is to analyze the adverse events of minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position during the learning curve. Material and methods: Between November 2011 and June 2017, 36 patients underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position in the Hospital Interzonal General de Agudos (HIGA) San Martín and the Instituto de Diagnóstico de La Plata. Results: During the abdominal stage one patient presented coronary vessel injury. The complications occurring in the thoracic stage included lung injury (n =2), azygos arch injury (n = 1), thoracic duct dissection (n = 1), laryngeal recurrent nerve lesion (n = 1) and main stem bronchus injury (n = 1) during lymph node resection. Most of these complications occurred in the first 20 patients, while in the remaining 16 cases only lung injury occurred (p = 0.10) Conclusion: Minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position is a feasible and safe procedure that can cause serious intraoperative complications due to its complexity. Although the results of our series did not show statistically significant differences, the number of adverse events during surgeries performed by the same team showed an important reduction associated with better training.
