Bone Microstructure by Using HR-pQCT After Esophagectomy
NCT ID:
NCT05812235
Condition:

Sarcopenia
Esophageal Cancer
Conditions: Official terms:

Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
esophagectomy
Description:
esophagectomy
Arm group label:
Esophagectomy
Summary:
Esophagectomy is most curative treatment to esophageal cancer. However, osteoporosis ,
which is characterized by both the loss of bone mass and the deterioration of bone
architecture, is a serious complication in the long course after surgery. The aim of the
present study was to evaluate osteoporosis by using high-resolution peripheral
quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) in the long course after esophagectomy. At
least 3 years should have elapsed since operation without recurrence of esophageal
cancer.
Detailed description:
The patients after esophagectomy loss appetite and decrease the weight. Esophagectomy
especially cause severe sarcopenia and metabolic change. Osteoporosis, which is
characterized by both the loss of bone mass and the deterioration of bone architecture,
is a serious complication in the long course after esophagectomy. The primary tools for
assessing volumetric density and bone structure are quantitative computed tomography
(QCT) and more recently, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography
(HR-pQCT). However the validation of osteoporosis with HR-pQCT in the long course after
esophagectomy remain elusive. The aim of the present study was to evaluate osteoporosis
by using HR-pQCT in the long course after esophagectomy. At least 3 years should have
elapsed since esophagectomy without any recurrence.
