Research progress in postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer

Esophageal cancer is one of the tumors with high morbidity rates in China, and surgery remains to be the preferred treatment. However, certain complications such as anastomotic fistula, lung infection, respiratory failure, and circulatory failure occur after surgery. Postoperative enteral nutritional support could not only maintain and improve the nutritional status of the body but also reduce complications and maintain normal immune function. This review focuses on the progress in postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer.
