| Popis: | The study aimed to determine whether magnetic resonance thoracic ductography (MRTD) is useful for preventing injury to the thoracic duct (TD) during thoracoscopic esophagectomy and for reducing the incidence of postoperative chylothorax. A total of 389 patients underwent thoracoscopic esophagectomy between September 2009 and February 2019 in Tokai University Hospital. Of them, we evaluated 228 patients who underwent preoperative MRTD (MRTD group) using Adachi’s classification and our novel classification (Tokai classification). Then, the clinicopathological factors of the MRTD group (n = 228) were compared with those of the non-MRTD group (n = 161), and comparative analyses were conducted after propensity score matching (PSM). The TD could be visualized by MRTD in 228 patients. The MRTD findings were divided into 9 classifications including normal findings and abnormal TD findings (Adachi classification vs Tokai classification; 5.3% vs 16.2%). After PSM, both groups consisted of 128 patients. The rate of postoperative chylothorax after thoracoscopic esophagectomy was significantly lower in the MRTD group (0.8%) than in the non-MRTD group (6.3%) (p = 0.036). In the multivariate analysis for risk factors for chylothorax, the independent prognostic factors were preoperative therapy and the presence of MRTD. This study revealed that MRTD was useful for preventing of chylothorax after thoracoscopic esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. |
