ABSTRACT
Objective:We aimed to investigate the effect of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients who underwent one-lung ventilation (OLV) surgery. Methods:A total of 90 esophageal carcinoma patients aged 60 years old or older were included. These patients were scheduled for esophagectomy, including two or three-field lymphadenec-tomy, and were randomly divided into two groups based on the American Society of Anesthesiologists status (Ⅰ or Ⅱ) and the Tu-mor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) classification stage (ⅡorⅢ), as follows:the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy group (Group N:n=45) that re-ceived preoperative neo-adjuvant chemotherapy;and the control group (Group C:n=45) that did not receive chemotherapy. The neuro-psychological test was performed 1 d before and 7 d after surgery to evaluate the changes in cognitive function. The incidence of POCD was also determined via the Z-value method in the two groups. Results:A total of 44 patients in Group N and 41 patients in Group C completed the neuropsychological tests. No statistical differences were observed in the demographics, TNM stage, and the intra-and post-operative clinical data between the groups. POCD was observed in 21 of the patients in Group N (47.7%) and 11 of the patients in Group C (26.8%), and the differences were significant (χ2=3.949, P=0.047). Conclusion:Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy can aggravate the impairment of cognitive function in the elderly patients undergoing OLV surgery and can significantly increase the incidence of POCD.
