AB  - Esophagectomy  is  associated  with  considerable  morbidity  and  mortality  despite  improvements  in  surgical  technique  and  perioperative  care.The  optimal  technique  in  a  particular  patient  depends  on  specific  patient  characteristics  as  well  as  surgeon-  and  center-specific  experience  and  preference  more  than  tumor  morphology  or  staging.Multimodal  anesthetic  management  utilizing  thoracic  epidural  analgesia,  protective  ventilation,  prevention  of  tracheal  aspiration,  and  judicious  fluid  management  helps  reduce  postoperative  morbidity,  particularly  pulmonary  complications  and  anastomotic  leakage.
