[Hemodynamic indices and the volume of circulating blood in the surgical treatment of cancer of the esophagus and cardial portion of the stomach].

The authors report the data on changes in some indices of the hemodynamics, red blood, total blood serum protein, the circulatory volume and amount of the operative blood loss in radical surgical treatment of patients with cancer of the esophagus and cardia. Depending on the kind of anesthesia all patients were subdivided into three groups: in the first group ether-nitrous oxide-oxygen endotracheal narcosis was employed, in the second-fluothane-nitrous oxide-oxygen endotracheal narcosis and in the third-neuroleptanalgesia.
