The old man was choked and checked as a esophageal cancer.

(Correspondent Liu Shanshan) The 68 -year -old Dad Wu was always stunned. Later, he couldn't even eat porridge. When he went to the hospital, he had suffered from esophageal cancer. Recently, thoracoscopic experts from Wuhan Central Hospital adopted a minimally invasive method of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy, which was successfully removed in the chest and abdomen to open several small incisions in the chest and abdomen.

Dad Wu, who lives in Hankou, is 68 years old. He usually gobbles in dinner and likes to eat hot mouth. In the past six months, he always felt like he was in his throat while eating, and he was choked at every turn. At first, he thought it was too anxious to eat, and he was cooked as soft as possible when cooking. But then he couldn't swallow the food and became more and more serious. Even eating porridge would be stunned, because he couldn't eat things, and the whole person lost a lot. At this time, Dad Wu thought of going to the hospital for examination. Through the gastroscopy, there were new creatures in the middle and lower stages of the esophagus. The biopsy was diagnosed with esophageal cancer.

Traditional esophageal cancer surgery requires a large trauma of "opening, open abdomen" or "open chest, open abdomen, and open neck". Even if the thoracoscopic resection surgery that is currently often developed, a 10cm incision is still needed in the patient's abdomen. In the reconstruction of digestive tract. Dad Wu was afraid of surgery, fearing that "opening a big knife" would have a great impact on the body, and he did not dare to surgery. Last week, he came to the thoracic surgery of Wuhan Central Hospital. After carefully studying the condition and evaluation of the chief of the thoracic surgery Chen Baojun, he decided to implement the root cure for the patient's undergoing laparoscopic esophageal cancer, that is, the combination of thoracoscopy, laparoscopic dual -lens surgery.

After sufficient preoperative preparation, Zhao Yan, deputy chief physician of the thoracic surgery, and Zuo Tao, the attending physician, performed minimally invasive surgery for Dad Wu, and 2 small incisions were opened on his chest. Clean, successfully remove the tumor. Then hit 4 small holes of 0.5-1cm in its abdomen, swim the stomach under the laparoscopy, and make the tube-shaped stomach, suture the tubular stomach with the residual esophagus, and re-establish the digestive tract. The surgery lasted 4 hours to complete. Under the careful treatment and care of thoracic surgery medical staff, the postoperative patients recovered well. They could get out of bed in a few days.

"This patient suffers from esophageal cancer, and bad eating habits are direct incentives." Chen Baojun, Director of the Department of Deep Surgery, introduced that in addition to genetic factors, he prefers hot, spicy, hot food and pickles pickled foods, long -term smoking, drinking, and 40 of family history. People over the age are high incidence of esophageal cancer. To prevent esophageal cancer, you should usually develop good life and eating habits, quit smoking, quit alcohol, reduce the intake of stimulating food, avoid eating too much, too fast, and eat less pickled food. If you have symptoms such as stubbornness, difficulty swallowing, or pain in sternum, you should be vigilant and go to the hospital for examination in time to achieve early and early treatment. Total laparoscopy and laparoscopy are combined with the root cure of esophageal cancer, which avoids the traditional surgical incision, which conforms to the concept of rapid recovery after surgery, and is especially suitable for elderly patients with poor cardiopulmonary function.
