| Core Tip |
Patients undergoing neo-adjuvant chemotherapy prior to oesophagectomy have complex nutritional needs. Retrospective data were collected for 15 patients pre- and post neo-adjuvant chemotherapy to examine the effect of regular nutritional support via feeding jejunostomy on overall body composition. There was no real change in weight (74.5 ± 14.1 kg to 74.8 ± 13.1 kg) and BMI (26.0 ± 3.8 kg/m2 to 26.1 ± 3.4 kg/m2). Body composition analysis revealed a statistically significant decrease in lumbar skeletal muscle index despite regular feeding (45.8 ± 8.0 cm2/m2 to 43.5 ± 7.3 cm2/m2; P = 0.045). Regular jejunostomy feeding during neo-adjuvant chemotherapy can maintain weight and adipose tissue. Further insight into processes causing reduced muscle mass in cancer patients may provide targeted interventions. |
