Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to identify perioperative risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing esophageal cancer surgery. DESIGN: A retrospective analysis of the prospectively collected medical data. SETTING: A tertiary care university hospital. PARTICIPANTS: All consecutive adult patients (n=595) who underwent elective esophageal surgery for cancer between January 2005 and April 2012. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: AKI was defined by the AKI Network criteria based on serum creatinine changes within the first 48 hours after esophageal cancer surgery. The relationship between perioperative variables and AKI was evaluated using multivariate logistic regression. Postoperative AKI developed in 210 (35.3%) patients. Risk factors for AKI were body mass index (odds ratio [OR] 1.07; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.14), preoperative serum albumin level (OR 0.52; 95% CI 0.33-0.84), use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin-receptor blockers (OR 1.35; 95% CI 1.05-1.75), colloid infusion during surgery (OR 1.11; 95% CI 1.06-1.18), and postoperative 2-day C-reactive protein (OR 1.05; 95% CI 1.01-1.09). Postoperative AKI was associated with prolonged length of hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative AKI is common in patients undergoing esophageal surgery for cancer. Closer evaluation and monitoring in patients with risk factors for AKI may be warranted.
