FA01.03: USE OF 'NON-TUBE NO FASTING' ERAS PROTOCOL IN PATIENTS AFTER MIE WITH LI'S ANASTOMOSIS: OUTCOMES IN THE FIRST 113 PATIENTS PERFORMED BY A SURGEON AFTER TRAINING COURSE.

Background Use of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) protocol in the patients after esophagectomy is reported to be feasible and safe in recent studies. And in Prof. Yin Li's research, patients after minimally invasive esophagectomy(MIE) with Li's anastomosis took oral feeding on the 1^st day after operation (POD1). However, all the esophagectomy-procedures were proceeded by experienced experts. There was no report regarding whether ERAS protocol after MIE with Li's anastomosis could be safely proceeded by a young surgeon after training course. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of 'Non-Tube No Fasting' ERAS Protocol in patients after MIE with Li's Anastomosis proceeded by a surgeon after the training course. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients who underwent MIE for cancer from December 2015 to September 2017 by a new surgical team finished MIE training course in our department. During the study period, the new team performed Mckeown MIE with Li's anastomosis for 127 esophageal cancer patients. We analyzed the data of 113 patients who followed the protocol of 'Non-tube No Fasting' ERAS. The primary end-points were the incidence of anastomotic fistula, the injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve, pneumonia, and postoperative length of hospital-stay. Results All the 113 patients began oral feeding on POD1. Two patients exited the ERAS protocol on account of bucking caused by recurrent laryngeal nerve injury on POD3. The incidence of anastomotic fistula, recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and pneumonia were 3.5% (4/113), 12.4%(14/113) and 18.5%(21/113). The average length of postoperative hospital-stay was 8.6 ± 6.9 days. Both of the in-hospital mortality and 30-day mortality were 0. Conclusion Our date indicated that it was feasible and safe for a selected surgeon after 'Non-tube no fasting' ERAS and MIE training courses to proceed the protocol. Of course, more clinical researches are needed to confirm this result. Disclosure All authors have declared no conflicts of interest. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
