Core Tip |
Vascular calcification does not predict anastomotic leak (AL) or gastric conduit necrosis (CN) following oesophagectomy for malignancy. There is no association between vascular calcification and severity of AL or CN. AL is significantly more common in female vs male patients. Gastric CN is significantly more common in females, patients with diabetes, a history of smoking and a higher American Society of Anaesthesiologists grade. Inter-rater reliability for calcification scoring of the vessels supplying the gastric tube is excellent. |
