Abstract:
In the past decade, fast track surgery protocols have been implemented in several fields of surgery. With these protocols, a faster recovery and shorter hospital stay can be accomplished. Fast track surgery may improve patients' satisfaction while reducing the hospitalization expenses. Through literature review combined with our clinical practice, this article aims to evaluate practical measures of a fast track surgery protocol in esophagectomy for esophageal cancer and their clinical application.
