Abstract

After esophagectomy for cancer, the first choice for reconstruction of the gastrointestinal continuity is by gastric tube. When this is not feasible, a reconstruction by colon interposition can be performed. The aim of this study was to assess the quality of life in patients at least 6 months after esophageal cancer resection and colon interposition without signs of recurrent disease. The results were compared with previously published data of patients after esophageal cancer resection and gastric tube reconstruction. Between January 1993 and January 2002, 36 patients underwent esophageal cancer resection and gastrointestinal reconstruction by colon interposition. A one-time Quality of Life assessment was carried out in 14 patients who were still disease free after a median follow-up of 21 months (mean 35, range 7-97). The patients were visited at home and asked to fill in questionnaires which consisted of the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey to assess general quality of life, an adapted Rotterdam Symptom Checklist to assess disease-specific quality of life, a visual analogue scale, and an additional questionnaire concerning other specific effects of the operation. All 14 patients returned the completed set of questionnaires...Continue Reading
