NAZARIO DOLZ, Ana María et al. Predictors of complications and death in patients with esophagectomy due to esophagus cancer. MEDISAN [online]. 2022, vol.26, n.2, pp. 240-254.  Epub 04-Abr-2022. ISSN 1029-3019.

Introduction:

Morbidity and mortality continue being high worldwide as consequence of the esophagectomy programmed due to esophagus cancer.

Objective:

To identify the predictor factors of postsurgical and death complications, hospitalization and death causes in the studied population.

Method:

A cohort study of 81 patients with diagnosis of esophagus cancer was carried out. They were assisted in Saturnino Lora and Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso hospitals in the province of Santiago de Cuba from January, 2010 to December, 2019, of which a random sample of 68 was chosen. To identify the prediction factors associated with the complications and mortality 2 cohorts of sick patients were defined: the exposed and those not exposed to interest factors, such as the thoracotomy realization, reinterventions, besides the infectious medical and surgical complications. The statistical method of Hosmer-Lemeshow was used with a significance level of α = 0,10.

Results:

If thoracotomy is carried out, the probability that infectious surgical complications are developed is 2.3 times more that if it is not carried out; also, the risk of dying due to this complications (p=0.024), in opposition to when they are not presented, ascends to 370.0 % (IC 90 %: 1.5-14.8).

Conclusion:

The thoracotomy realization is established as predictor factor of complications and the presence of reinterventions and infectious medical and surgical complications as death predictors in the programmed esophagectomy.
