Aim

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of azygos vein preservation on postoperative complications in esophageal atresia-tracheoesophageal fistula (EA-TEF).

Method

We performed English literature review using EMBASE, PubMed, Medline, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases, encompassing all relevant publications up to July 2024. The impact of azygos vein preservation on postoperative complications, including anastomotic leaks, esophageal strictures, chest infections, and mortality were analysed. Patients were analyzed in two groups as azygos vein preservation (PAV) and azygos vein ligation (LAV).

Results

A total of 7 studies were included. RCT subgroup analysis showed that PAV group has lower anastomotic leak rate (I²=0%) (OR: 0.50, 95% CI: 0.28 to 0.88; p=0.02). Overall analysis showed that the PAV group has a lower anastomotic stricture rate (I²=9%) (OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.34 to 0.97; p=0.04). The PAV group had a significantly lower chest infection rate (I²=0%) (OR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.18 to 0.49; p<0.00001). The PAV group had a significantly lower mortality rate (I²=0%) (OR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.28 to 0.82; p=0.007). The overall mortality rates in the PAV and LAV groups were 9.2% and 18%, respectively.

Conclusion

The preservation of the azygos vein provides significant benefits in reducing anastomotic leaks, pulmonary infections, and mortality rates in esophageal atresia repair, potentially enhancing surgical success. However, these results need to be supported by randomized controlled trials.

Amaç

Bu çalışmanın amacı, azygos veninin korunmasının (PAV) özofagus atrezisi-trakeoözofageal fistül (EA-TEF) onarımındaki postoperatif komplikasyonlar üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmektir.

Yöntem

EMBASE, PubMed, Medline, SCOPUS, Web of Science ve Cochrane veritabanları kullanılarak Temmuz 2024'e kadar olan tüm ilgili yayınları kapsayan bir İngilizce literatür taraması yapıldı. Azygos veninin korunmasının anastomoz kaçağı, özofageal darlıklar, akciğer enfeksiyonları ve mortalite gibi postoperatif komplikasyonlar üzerindeki etkisi analiz edildi. Hastalar azygos veninin korunmasının (PAV) ve azygos veninin ligate edilmesi (LAV) olarak iki grub altında analiz edilmiştir.

Bulgular

Toplam 7 çalışma dahil edildi. RCT alt grup analizinde, PAV grubunun daha düşük anastomoz kaçağı oranına sahip olduğu görüldü (I²=0%) (OR: 0.50, 95% CI: 0.28-0.88; p=0.02). Genel analizde, PAV grubunun daha düşük anastomoz darlığı oranına sahip olduğu belirlendi (I²=9%) (OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.34-0.97; p=0.04). PAV grubunun, akciğer enfeksiyonu oranı anlamlı olarak daha düşük bulundu (I²=0%) (OR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.18-0.49; p<0.00001). Ayrıca, PAV grubunun mortalite oranı da anlamlı olarak daha düşüktü (I²=0%) (OR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.28-0.82; p=0.007). PAV ve LAV gruplarındaki genel mortalite oranları sırasıyla %9.2 ve %18 olarak bulundu.

Sonuç

Azygos veninin korunması, özofagus atrezisi onarımında anastomoz kaçağı, akciğer enfeksiyonu ve mortalite oranlarını azaltmada önemli faydalar sağlamaktadır; bu da cerrahi başarıyı artırabilir. Ancak bu sonuçların randomize kontrollü çalışmalarla desteklenmesi gerekmektedir.
