Combined esophagogastric resection for cancer at esophagogastric junction and off pump CABG through left posterolateral thoracotomy

Abstract: Carcinoma of the esophagus can coexist with significant Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) in the elderly. A staged approach to the two problems, carrying out Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) first followed by cancer resection at two anesthetic settings is a logical way of tackling the conditions. But it lengthens morbidity and increases economic burden. Simultaneous tackling of these two problems, i.e. operation at the same anesthetic settings can offer a better outcome albeit at the cost of a longer operati… Show more

“…13,14 However, if the internal mammary artery was not longer enough as a graft or cannot be easily harvested, the saphenous vein was acceptable. 11,12 The postoperative complications were acceptable for patients with simultaneous esophagectomy and CABG. In the literatures, all the patients recovered well except one patient suffered intrathoracic bleeding after operation (Table 3).…”

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9] Several cases of simultaneous esophagectomy and offpump CABG were reported in selected patients. [10][11][12][13][14] However, the long-term follow up were deficient. Herein, we reported a multipatient case series of simultaneous esophagectomy and off-pump CABG with relatively longer follow up.…”
