Total laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy after neoadjuvant Chemoradiation with minimal overall and anastomotic complications.
Observational study in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe published rates of morbidity and mortality remain relatively high for patients who undergo laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. We report the postoperative and oncologic outcomes of a large cohort of patients with esophageal carcinoma who were uniformly treated with laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy following neoadjuvant chemoradiation.
methodsThis is a retrospective observational study of 112 patients diagnosed with esophageal carcinoma who underwent total laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy from May 2014 to May 2018. All of the patients received neoadjuvant chemoradiation consisting of 45 to 50.4 Gray of radiation and 3-5 cycles of carboplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy. Perioperative morbidity and 90-day mortality were recorded. The overall and disease-free survival rates were estimated by Kaplan Meier techniques.
resultsA total of 112 patients completed induction chemoradiation followed by a total laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. There were 87 (77.68%) males and 25 (22.32%) females with a mean age of 61.6 years ± 10.4. A total of 28 (25%) patients had one or more complications. A total of 4 patients (3.57%) had an anastomotic leak. The 90-day mortality rate was 0.89%. The 3-year overall survival rate was 64.7% and the 3-year disease-free survival rate was 70.2%.
conclusionThe current outcomes suggest that laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy can be performed with minimal overall and anastomotic complications following neoadjuvant chemoradiation.
