A systematic review was performed by searching medical databases （Medline, Embase and the Cochrane Library） for potentially relevant studies that appeared between January 1975 and March 2011. Studies were included if they addressed the question of HRQL after esophageal resection for esophageal cancer. Two researchers independently performed the study selection, data extraction and analysis processes. Twenty-one observational studies were included with a total of 1282 （12-355） patients. Five studies were performed with short form-36 （SF-36） and 16 with European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer （EORTC） QLQ c30 （14 of them also utilized the disease-specific OESI8 or its previous version OES24）.The analysis of long-term generic HRQL with SF-36 showed pooled scores for physical, role and social function after esophagectomy similar to United States norms, but lower pooled scores for physical function, vitality and general health perception. The analysis of HRQL conducted using the Global EORTC C30 global scale during a 6-mo follow-up showed that global scale and physical function were better at the baseline. The symptom scales indicated worsened fatigue, dyspnea and diarrhea 6 mo after esophagectomy. In contrast, however, emotional function had significantly improved after 6 mo. In conclusion, short- and long-term HRQL is deeply affected after esophagectomy for cancer. The impairment of physical function may be a long-term consequence of esophagectomy involving either the respiratory system or the alimentary tract. The short- and long-term improvement in the emotional function of patients who have undergone successful operations may be attributed to the impression that they have survived a near-death experience.展开更多

To examine the quality of life of preoperative and postoperative ESCA patients, we used the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Core Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C-30) and the Quality of Life Questionnaire Oesophageal 18 (QLQ-OES18). Using the EORTC QLQ-C30 and the QLQ-OES18 questionnaire, the analysis of the quality of life scores of 246 patients with oesophageal cancer who were operated on at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Centre during the period 2013 to 2015 was carried out. Differences between pre- and post-surgical EORTC QLQ C-30 and QLQ-OES18 scores were examined using the Student’s t-test. Patients’ global health status (QoL) decreased significantly one month after the operation but gradually recovered within a year. In terms of the role function, the emotional function, the cognitive function, and the perception and function variants, EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OES18 scores increased statistically significantly, as did clinical signs variables such as exhaustion, nausea, vomiting, pain, sleeplessness, decreased appetite, stomach pain, and economic hardship. After surgery, there was an improvement in functional and symptom domains in esophageal carcinoma patients. EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OES18 can be used to assess the HRQoL before and after surgical procedures.展开更多
