description

Despite improvements in operative strategies for esophageal resection, anastomotic leaks, fistula, postoperative pulmonary complications, and chylothorax can occur. Our review seeks to identify potential risk factors, modalities for early diagnosis, and novel interventions that may ameliorate the potential adverse effects of these surgical complications following esophagectomy. ispartof: Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences vol:1434 issue:1 pages:254-273 ispartof: location:United States status: Published online
