Impact of Circular Stapler Size on Short‐Term Outcomes and Long‐Term Quality of Life After <scp>McKeown</scp> Esophagectomy
Short-term outcomes did not differ between patients who underwent anastomosis with a 21 mm stapler and those with a 23 mm stapler, however QOL, particularly the feeling of dysphagia, was worse in patients who used a 21 mm stapler compared to those who used a 23 mm stapler.
