Article Synopsis
- - Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a serious complication following esophagectomy for esophageal cancer, and this study aimed to identify its risk factors by examining 363 patients who underwent surgery between 2009 and 2022.
- - The study found that AL occurred in 4.9% of patients, with peptic or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcer scars and diabetes mellitus significantly associated with increased risk, particularly scars on the gastric wall.
- - The research highlights that ulcer scars reduce blood flow in the gastric conduit, suggesting the need for preventive measures and careful management for patients with these risk factors to minimize the chances of AL post-surgery.
