13. Avaliação nutricional pré-operatória e risco cirúrgico em pacientes com tumores do trato gastrintestinal superior
Malnutrition, a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer has been assessed by different criteria and methods. The aim of this study was to compare subjective, anthropometric and laboratorial methods as predictors of morbidity and mortality. Seventy-four patients (45 men, 29 women) with a mean (SD) age 62.8 (10.2) years who underwent eso

15. Esofagectomia na perfuração esofágica com diagnóstico tardio
Esophageal perforations are related to high mortality rates, especially if there is a delayed diagnostic and treatment. We report an esophageal perforation caused by caustic ingestion, in a suicidal attempt, successfully treated by esophagectomy after a long period of misdiagnosis that lead to infectious complications.

17. Assessment of the late results of advanced Chagasic megaesophagus after two treatments esophagectomy with an associated gastroplasty and the Serra Dória procedure - clinical, nutritional, endoscopic, and anatomopathological study and assessment of the quality / "Avaliação dos resultados tardios de megaesôfago chagásico avançado operado pela técnica de esofagectomia com gastroplastia e operação de Serra Dória: estudo clínico, nutricional, endoscópico, anatomopatológico e avaliação da qualidade de vida"
The objective of the paper was to carry out a comparative evaluation of the late results of a transdiaphragmatic esophagectomy with an associated gastroplasty and of the Serra Dória procedure, for the treatment of advanced megaesophagus. A cohort study was done on 44 patients. Late follow up for the EG Group was 77.0 months, and for the SD Group, 62.1 month

18. A influencia do condicionamento muscular respiratorio pre-operatorio na recuperação de pacientes submetidos a cirurgia de esofago : uma visão fisioterapica
Pulmonary complications like pneumonia, pleural effusion, atelectasis, chylothorax are constantly observed in patients who have undergone esophagectomy. Among several factors that may cause those changes, one that brings out is the absence of preoperative respiratory preparation. Besides, the intrinsic factor of the surgery, the unprepared respiratory muscle

19. Tratamento do megaesofago pela mucosectonia conservação da tunica muscular esofagica por via cervicoabdominal
The partial or total esophagectomy without thoracotomy has been used with great frequency for the last few years to benign affections, specially in the advanced megaesophagus. Although this procedure presents advantages of avoiding the compromise of lung dynamics, it is not free of complications. Among these, we have to emphasize the opening of pleura with h

20. Computerized axial tomography of the esophagus to determine the suitability for blunt esophagectomy.
Computerized axial tomographic (CT) scans were performed on 16 patients over an 18-month period to determine which patients were candidates for removal of their esophageal tumors by blunt esophagectomy. Blunt esophagectomy was offered only to those patients whose tumors were confined to the esophageal wall on CT scan. Thirteen patients were able to undergo b

21. The rationale for esophagectomy as the optimal therapy for Barrett's esophagus with high-grade dysplasia.
OBJECTIVE: The authors determined the incidence of invasive adenocarcinoma after esophagectomy in patients endoscopically diagnosed as having Barrett's esophagus with high-grade dysplasia. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Barrett's esophagus is a well-recognized premalignant condition. There is controversy with regard to the optimal treatment of high-grade dysplasia

22. Esophagectomy for carcinoma of the esophagus in the elderly: results of current surgical management.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the risk of esophagectomy in the elderly compared with younger patients and to determine whether results of esophagectomy in the elderly have improved in recent years. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: An increased life expectancy has led to more elderly patients presenting with carcinoma of the esophagus in recent years. Esopha

23. Barrett's esophagus with high-grade dysplasia. An indication for prophylactic esophagectomy.
OBJECTIVE. The authors review the results and outcomes of esophagectomy (prophylactic esophagectomy) for patients with Barrett's esophagus and high-grade epithelial dysplasia (HGD). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA. The role of prophylactic esophagectomy for Barrett's esophagus with HGD is controversial, with some authors recommending surgery and others favoring endo

24. Selection of operation for esophageal cancer based on staging.
The concept of en bloc removal of tissue surrounding the esophagus was applied to intrathoracic esophageal cancers, and the first 80 cases were operated on by this technique between 1969 and 1981. Analysis of prognostic factors showed that only penetration through the esophageal wall and lymph node spread influenced survival. Since 1981, a new staging system
