Abstract
The aim of this study is to reveal the mechanism of esophagectomy-mediated swallowing motion disorders. Forty-seven patients who underwent 3-stage esophagectomy with cervical anastomosis and VFSS for esophageal cancer were selected. Twenty-three patients displayed subglottic aspiration (aspiration group) and the other 24 patients did not show any aspiration or penetration in the videofluoroscopic swallowing study after esophagectomy (no aspiration group). For comparison, 27 healthy volunteers (normal group) were included. Maximal anterior displacement of the hyoid (MADH), maximal superior displacement of the hyoid (MSDH), maximal rotation of the epiglottis (MRE) and pharyngeal delay time (PDT) were measured by image J software. MADH, MRE, and PDT in normal group were significantly different from those in aspiration and no aspiration groups (P<0.001). The normal group displayed a significantly different PDT compared to the no aspiration and aspiration groups, and the no aspiration group had a significantly different PDT compared to the aspiration group (P<0.001). The mechanism of swallowing motion disorders caused by the esophagectomy in esophageal cancer includes the decreased anterior movement of the hyoid and rotation of the epiglottis caused by the prolonged operation time and delayed pharyngeal reflex caused by the laryngeal sensory disturbance. Among them, the main mechanism of subglottic aspiration after esophagectomy is the delayed pharyngeal reflex.
