Summary
This research study is a phase III randomized trial to study the value of the addition of a pyloroplasty procedure versus no pyloroplasty procedure during the performance of esophagectomy. Pyloroplasty is a type of pyloric drainage procedure.
Detailed description
Patients selected for enrollment in this study will be adults (18-85 years of age) that have been scheduled for exploration, and possible esophagectomy. Prior to surgery, patients will be randomized to one of two groups. Group A will have a pyloroplasty performed as part of the esophagectomy procedure. Group B will not have a pyloroplasty performed. Postoperative patient outcomes will be assessed for 24 months.
