BACKGROUND: During the past decade, minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) for esophageal cancer has been adopted worldwide with expectations of lower invasiveness. However, the rate of postoperative pneumonia, which is an independent risk factor for oncological prognosis in esophageal cancer, remains high. The aim of this retrospective follow-up study is to clarify whether there is a strong correlation between recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy and postoperative pneumonia in MIE.
METHODS: This retrospective follow-up study included 209 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position (TEP) at Kobe University between 2011 and 2018. Inclusion criteria included age 18-85 years; cT1-3, cN0-3 disease; upper mediastinal lymphadenectomy; and ability to undergo simultaneous esophagectomy and reconstruction of the gastric conduit or pedicled jejunum. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were conducted to identify independent risk factors for pneumonia.
RESULTS: Among 209 TEPs, pneumonia of Clavien-Dindo classification grade > II occurred in 44 patients (21%). In the pneumonia positive and negative groups, there were significant differences in age (67.9 ± 7.5 vs. 64.9 ± 8.6 years), 3-field lymph node dissection [27 (61%) vs. 67 (41%)], transfusion [20 (45%) vs. 41 (25%)], left RLN palsy [19 (43%) vs. 18 (11%)], and any RLN palsy [20 (45%) vs. 18 (11%)]. In multivariate analysis, any RLN palsy was associated with a higher incidence of pneumonia [odds ratio (OR), 6.210; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.728-14.480; P < 0.0001]. In addition, age was associated with a higher incidence of pneumonia (OR, 1.049; 95% CI, 1.001-1.103; P = 0.046). Changes in the rate of any RLN palsy over time were quite similar to changes in the incidence of pneumonia.
CONCLUSION: There is a strong correlation between RLN palsy and pneumonia in MIE for esophageal cancer. Prevention of RLN palsy may reduce the incidence of pneumonia, leading to better oncological prognosis.
