Brief Summary: The main surgical treatment for oesophageal cancer is a curative resection mostly performed according to Ivor Lewis However despite careful work and refined surgical techniques anastomotic leakage AL occurs in more than 110 of the patients This severe complication normally requires immediate intervention while over the last 10 years endoscopic vacuum therapy EVT has become the crucial therapy for broken-down anastomosis The hypothesis is that despite suffering a severe complication the subjective swallow function is not impaired in patients treated by EVT after an anastomotic leak compared to patients without AL
Detailed Description: The investigators will select patients after oesophagectomy and perform a structured interview regarding their quality of life and subjective swallow function Results will be compared according to defined subgroups especially patients with and without anastomotic leak
