OBJETIVO: Avaliar as indicações, sobrevida e fatores prognósticos da esofagogastrectomia com linfadenectomia em dois campos no câncer do esôfago torácico. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 111 pacientes retrospectivamente no período de janeiro de 1990 a dezembro de 2001 sendo 83 homens e 29 mulheres. A idade média dos pacientes foi 55,1 anos (variando entre 35-79). A linfadenectomia em dois campos foi parcial (Standard) em 34 pacientes(30,6%) e ampliada em 77(69,4%). RESULTADOS: A média de linfonodos dissecados foi de 22,6(variando entre 4 e 50). A doença R0 ocorreu em 53 pacientes(47,7%) a doença residual microscópica (R1) em 57 (52,3%) e a doença residual R2 em um paciente(0,9%). A recidiva ocorreu em 32 pacientes (28,8%) sendo em sete (6,3%) cervical, 17 (15,3%) locorregional e 19 (17,1%) sistêmica. A morbidade e mortalidade pós-operatória foram de 31,5% e 9% respectivamente, sem diferença significativa em relação á extensão da linfadenectomia mediastinal. A sobrevida global dos 111 pacientes em cinco anos foi de 48,4%, sem diferença significativa na sobrevida em relação á extensão da linfadenectomia, porém, houve aumento significativo na sobrevida livre de doença a favor dos paciente submetidos a linfadenectomia mediastinal ampliada(p=0,01). A ausência de doença residual (R0), comprometimento linfonodal (pN0) e o número de linfonodos comprometidos inferior a quatro, indicaram bom prognóstico. CONCLUSÃO: A esofagogastrectomia com linfadenectomia em dois campos apresentou um impacto positivo na taxa de sobrevida em cinco anos nos pacientes com câncer do esôfago torácico, particularmente em relação aos pacientes com ECIII. A linfadenectomia mediastinal ampliada aumentou significativamente a sobrevida livre de doença.
Objectives: the surgical approach persists as the main treatment for esophageal cancer. This study compares the patients of the same institution over time at three different times. Methods: this is a retrospective, observational, descriptive study comparing the surgical outcomes obtained by the Division of Surgical Oncology of Erasto Gaertner Hospital. The sample was divided into Period 1 (1987-1997), Period 2 (1998-2003) and Period 3 (2007-2015). Survival rates and disease-free survival were estimated by the Kaplan-Maier method. Survival predictors were identified with Cox regression. ANOVA test was used for comparison between groups. Data were analyzed with SPSS 25.0 and STATA 16, and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: a total of 335 patients underwent esophagectomy or esophagogastrectomy. When the clinical characteristics of the 3 groups were compared, there was no statistically significant difference. Neoadjuvance was significantly higher in Period 3 (55.4% of patients). We found a histological change in the diagnosis over time, with a significant increase in adenocarcinoma. Morbidity and mortality rates were higher in Period 3. The main complications were pulmonary and anastomotic fistulas. Overall survival in 5 years increased over time, reaching 59.7% in Period 3. Conclusions: better neoadjuvant treatment contributed to increase the global survival of patients, despite greater rate of immediate complications to surgery.
