Patients with esophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy and did not experience cancer recurrence for 3\u00a0years were analyzed. The psoas muscle mass index (PMI) was assessed before surgery and 7\u00a0days, 1\u00a0year, and 3\u00a0years after surgery. Patients with no change or increased PMI within 7\u00a0days after surgery were categorized into the Nondecreasing-PMI group, whereas those with decreased PMI were categorized into the Decreasing-PMI group. Eighty-four and 51 patients were categorized into the Nondecreasing- and Decreasing-PMI groups, respectively. The Decreasing-PMI group had a higher incidence rate of anastomotic leakage than the Nondecreasing-PMI group (25% vs. 12%, respectively; P\u2009=\u20090.042). Moreover, the Decreasing-PMI group showed a significantly greater decrease in the PMI 1\u00a0year after surgery than the Nondecreasing-PMI group (\u22129.2% vs. \u22124.0%, respectively; P\u2009=\u20090.048). However, although the Decreasing-PMI group had a greater decrease in the PMI than the Nondecreasing-PMI group, no significant difference was observed 3\u00a0years after surgery (\u22129.8% vs. \u22125.3%, respectively; P\u2009=\u20090.115). A decrease in PMI in the acute phase after esophagectomy may contribute to a long-term decrease in the PMI. Intensive interventions may be beneficial for these patients to improve their long-term quality of life.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/dote\/doac053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,8]],"date-time":"2022-09-08T13:32:43Z","timestamp":1662643963000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Long-term
