| Core Tip |
Our findings show that complications following esophagectomy are common, with most patients experiencing at least one complication, and over 40% of patients developing a major complication. Moreover, we have demonstrated that the severity, number of complications and the presence of esophagectomy key complications significantly contributed to total hospital costs. Reoperation, prolonged intensive care stay and hospital stay were major drivers of hospital costs. This study highlights the importance of a continuous institutional quality review to prevent and mitigate complications, and the need for improved intervention strategies to enhance patient outcomes and minimize costs. |
