Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The incidence of respiratory complications1 months

Respiratory complications including respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation, atelectasis needs suctioning of bronchoscopy, lung infection needs medication, adult respiratory distress syndrome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain Scores after surgerybefore operation, 1, 3 days and 1, 3, 6 months after surgery

Pain Scores will be measured by Brief pain inventory(BPI)

Short-term Effects of Traditional Three Incisions Surgery vs Minimally Invasive Thoracol-laparoscopic Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer2 years

To observe differences of short-term effects(bleeding volume during operation,operation time, hospital mortality, 2 years DFS) between two groups.

lung functionbefore operation, 1, 3 months after surgery

lung function will be measured by VC,FVC,FEV1,DLCO

The incidence of postoperative complications except respiratory complications1 months

Surgical Complications except respiratory complications(such as infection, esophageal fistula, etc.) will be measured by the Clavien-Dindo Classification

Health-related quality of life scores(HRQoL)before operation, 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,18, 21, 24 months after surgery

HRQoL will be measured by EORTC QLO-C30, QLQ-OES18
