Esophageal cancer surgery has historically been associated with high levels of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Post-esophagectomy diaphragmatic hernia (PEDH) represents a potentially life-threatening surgical complication, with incidence and risk factors not clearly demonstrated. This study evaluates presenting characteristics and repair outcomes in PEDH after Ivor Lewis esophagectomy for cancer.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer surgery has historically been associated with high levels of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Post-esophagectomy diaphragmatic hernia (PEDH) represents a potentially life-threatening surgical complication, with incidence and risk factors not clearly demonstrated.
