Abstract
Patients who underwent an Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy at a safety-net hospital had fewer complications and reoperations, and a shorter hospital length of stay compared with a national cohort. These findings illustrate the value of clinical pathways in optimizing the patient outcomes at safety-net hospitals and providing excellent care to their vulnerable patient population.
