Popis:	Aim Three surgical approaches to oesophagus have been described. Drain placement in oesophagectomy remains controversial and is associated with complications. The review evaluates the effectiveness of surgically placed drain after oesophagectomy. Method Main electronic databases were searched for studies reported clinical outcomes or effects of cervical (neck), transthoracic (chest) and transabdominal drain placement. The systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines and meta-analysis was analysed using fixed and random-effects models. Results There were only two randomised controlled trials to date. Neither of these approaches (drain versus no drain) has convincing benefits in any particular oesophagectomy approach in early detection of anastomotic leakage, pleural effusion, and chylothorax nor disadvantages associated with significant morbidity and mortality and prolonged hospital stay. Conclusions Surgical drain in oesophagectomy may not confer additional benefit and routine practice of placement is surgeons preferential. The results do not reach statistical significance. Further work is required.
