Impact of Perioperative Shedding of the Endothelial Glycocalyx on Short-term Postoperative Complication in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Esophagectomy

Impact of Perioperative Shedding of the Endothelial Glycocalyx on Short-term Postoperative Complication in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Esophagectomy

The aim of this study was to determine whether changes in serum levels of syndecan-1 before and after surgery, which is an index related to injury of the endothelial glycocalyx layer, are associated with postoperative short-term complications and mortality in patients undergoing robotic esophagectomy.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. patients 20 years or older who undergo robotic esophagectomy

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Emergency surgery
2. If the subject includes a person who can not read the written consent (eg, illiterate, foreigner, etc.)
3. Chronic kidney disease (eGFR <30 mL / min / 1.73 m2)
4. Pregnant and lactating women
5. Use of oral anticoagulants
