Abstract

Background Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) occurs in up to 40% of patients after esophageal resection and prolongs recovery and hospital stay. Surgically pyloroplasty does not effectively prevent DGE. Recently published methods include injection of botulinum toxin (botox) in the pylorus and mechanical interventions as preoperative endoscopic dilatation of the pylorus. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of those methods with respect to the newly published Consensus definition of DGE. Methods A systematic literature search using CENTRAL, Medline, and Web of Science was performed to identify studies that described pre- or intraoperative botox injection or mechanical stretching methods of the pylorus in patients undergoing esophageal resection. Frequency of DGE, anastomotic leakage rates, and length of hospital stay were analyzed. Outcome data were pooled as odd's ratio (OR) or mean difference using a random-effects model. Risk of bias was assessed using the Robins-I tool for non-randomized trials. Results Out of 391 articles seven retrospective studies described patients that underwent preventive botulinum toxin injection and four studies described preventive mechanical stretching of the pylorus. DGE was not affected by injection of botox (OR 0.87, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37-2.03, P = 0.75), whereas mechanical stretching resulted in significant reduction of DGE (OR 0.26, 95% CI 0.14-0.5, P < 0.0001). Conclusion Mechanical stretching of the pylorus, but not injection of botox reduces DGE after esophageal cancer resection. A newly developed consensus definition should be used before the conduction of a large-scale randomized-controlled trial.
