Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Aim: The aim of this study was to prospectively explore body composition and function in a cohort of patients with esophageal cancer before and after surgery with curative intent. In particular, to investigate the prevalence and development of sarcopenia and body composition as a consequence to surgery for esophageal cancer and the possible relation to morbidity, length of stay and quality of life (QoL).
Methods: In a cohort of 76 patients who had esophageal- or cardia-cancer and were planned for surgery with a curative intent, data on body-composition measured with bioimpedance, working capacity (cardiac stress test), grip strength and QoL (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaires (QLQ)-C30 version 3.0) were prospectively collected. Data regarding dysphagia was derived from an esophagus related quality of life form (EORTC QLQ-OES18). Data on tumour stage and type, complications, length of stay and preoperative weight loss were collected from medical charts.
