abstract = {Background: To investigate the feasibility and safety of two lung ventilation with artificial pneumothorax in minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) through a comparison with conventional one lung ventilation.
Methods: Eleven hundred and sixty-six patients with esophageal cancer, who underwent McKeown MIE in our center from February 2006 to December 2016, were studied retrospectively. Seven hundred and five patients who underwent one lung ventilation with double lumen endotracheal tube (DLET) were assigned to DLET group. Other 461 patients who underwent two lung ventilation with single lumen endotracheal tube (SLET) were assigned to SLET group. Clinical characteristics, surgical variables and complications were compared between two groups.
Results: There were comparable patient characteristics in two groups. Surgical variables and complications were discussed between two groups. SLET group seemed to have shorter operative time, shorter postoperative hospital stay, and more harvested recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) lymph nodes than DLET group, which might be attributed to experienced surgeons. However, there were no significant differences of complications between two groups. Intraoperative clinical parameters were further studied. Before intubation and artificial pneumothorax, there were no significant differences between two groups, except diastolic blood pressure (DBP). With the application of artificial pneumothorax, patients in SLET group have obviously higher PO2, PCO2, and PetCO2 value, and slightly lower pH value and blood pressure during thoracic phase. After the thoracic phase, the changes induced by artificial pneumothorax in SLET group were gradually reversed and clinical parameters gradually return to normal level.
Conclusions: Two lung ventilation with artificial pneumothorax is a safe and feasible choice during MIE.},
