The aim of this article is to describe management of complications of radical esophagectomy and to present outcome analysis of prospective study done on patients who underwent radical esophagectomy with 3FLND in our institution. The data analysis and results of our study and its comparison with current literature suggests that improvement in anaesthesia delivery, proper patient selection, refinements in surgical techniques and improved perioperative care are associated with decreased complication rates, morbidity and mortality thereby improving outcome in terms of overall survival with decreased rate of loco regional recurrence.
