Abstract
Eighteen male patients with operable esophagus carcinoma received parenteral nutrition during 4 preoperative and 14 postoperative days in three different infusion regimens. It was possible to demonstrate that a preoperative positive N-balance can be achieved in all patients of each group in comparison to 2 of the 3 groups postoperatively. Side effects were not observed in the course of this study.
