Malnutrition and Vitamin Deficiencies after Surgery for Esophageal and Gastric Cancer: a Metanalysis
Patients receiving oncological esophagectomy or gastrectomy are known to be at high risk for vitamin and micronutrient deficiency before, during and after surgery. However, there are no clear guidelines for these cancer patients regarding postoperative vitamin supplementation. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

In patients with esophageal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT), subsequent restaging with F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) can reveal the presence of interval metastases, such as liver metastases, in approximately 10% ...

Esophageal surgical Apgar score (eSAS): A predictor for postoperative morbidity in patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy and esophagectomy
ConclusionThe eSAS could be used as a predictor of major morbidity, while it was not correlated with OS and RFS. (Source: Thoracic Cancer)

The Ischemic Tolerance up to Four Hours of Free Jejunum Flap: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Conclusion In TPLE + FJT, a jejunal ischemia time of up to 4 hours had no effect on perioperative complications or postoperative dysphagia. The TPLE + FJT technique, involving a jejunal anastomosis first followed by vascular anastomosis, benefits from an easier jejunal anastomosis but suffers from a longer jejunal ischemia time. However, we found that ischemia time does not pose significant problems, although we have not evaluated the effects of jejunal ischemia extending beyond 4 hours.
