Investigating Outcomes of Elective Robotic Transhiatal Esophagectomy

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Esophagectomy

In brief

The primary goal of this study is to collect short-term and long-term health outcomes of a robotic transhiatal esophagectomy procedure. Clinical (or health) outcomes measure the effect of the procedure on your overall health status. During this procedure, the surgeon will remove all or part of your esophagus. We want to identify patients who will have this procedure. We will look at data elements before, during, and after your procedure to understand the impact of this surgery on your post-operative clinical outcomes.
