title: [Characteristics of early postoperative complications after esophageal surgery].
abstract: The data of a retrospective analysis of the studies conducted over a decade in 171 patients with benign and malignant esophageal diseases operated on at the Acad. V. Vakhidov Republican Specialized Center of Surgery were examined. The incidence and nature of early postoperative complications were studied in patients with surgical benign malignant esophageal diseases. The pattern of early postoperative complications mainly involved bronchopulmonary complications. The incidence of postoperative respiratory disorders was greater in patients with benign esophageal diseases than that in those with malignant ones. Overall mortality after reconstructive operations on the esophagus depended on neither respiratory nor specific causes and it was virtually equal in both benign and malignant esophageal lesions.
