NCT ID: NCT01696682 Recruiting - Anastomotic Leakage Clinical Trials

The Optimal Width of Gastric Conduit for Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: Wide or Narrow?

Start date: September 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study hypothesized that a narrow gastric conduit(less than 3cm in width) would minimize anastomotic leakage following minimally invasive esophagectomy. Therefore we raise this random-controlled research, and investigate the leakage ratio from different widths of gastric conduit formed during the operation.

NCT ID: NCT00942526 Recruiting - Anastomotic Leakage Clinical Trials

Oral Anti-Infective Agent for Esophageal Anastomotic Leakage

Start date: June 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Anastomotic leakage is still to be a major cause of considerable morbidity and mortality after esophagectomy and gastric pull up for esophageal carcinoma. Risk factor analyses of anastomotic leakage, including blood supply, graft tension, and comorbidity, have been performed, but few studies have produced strategies that have improved operative results. This study will be performed to identify prognostic variables that might be used to develop a strategy for optimizing outcomes after esophagogastrectomy.

NCT ID: NCT00876551 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Esophageal Neoplasms

Endoscopic-vacuum Assisted Closure of Intrathoracic Postsurgical Leaks

EVACoIL
Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the short and long term outcome of endoscopic vacuum assisted closure of intrathoracic postsurgical leaks.

NCT ID: NCT00686569 Completed - Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trials

Mediastinal Microdialysis in Patients With Oesophageal or Cardia Cancer Treated by Resection

Start date: April 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Postoperative anastomotic leakage is a serious complication in patients with oesophageal or cardia cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment are mandatory. The primary aim of the present study is to investigate the clinical use of mediastinal microdialysis and whether is able to detect anastomotic leakage prior to the development of clinical symptoms.

NCT ID: NCT00642525 Completed - Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trials

Detection of Anastomotic Leakage After Esophageal Surgery

Start date: January 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Anastomotic leakage is a major complication in esophageal surgery. Although contrast swallow is the current standard to exclude anastomotic leakage postoperatively, endoscopy may be superior. This is the first study to compare radiographic contrast study and endoscopy for the identification of local complications after subtotal esophagectomy.
