Lucas Goense, MD, Peter S.N. van Rossum, MD, Jelle P. Ruurda, MD, PhD, Marco van Vulpen, MD, PhD, Stella Mook, MD, PhD, Gert J. Meijer, PhD, Richard van Hillegersberg, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 102, Issue 6, Pages (December 2016) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2016 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Box plots showing (A) the distribution of gastric fundus dose variables (mean dose [Dmean], minimum dose [Dmin], dose that covered at least 50% of the volume [D50], maximum dose [Dmax]), and (B) the distribution of gastric fundus volume percentages receiving a minimum amount of Gy (percentage of the volume that received at least 25, 30, and 35 Gy [V20, V25, V30, V35, respectively]) between patients with and without anastomotic leakage. *Variables significantly associated with anastomotic leakage.

3 Fig 2 Examples of treatment planning computed tomographic (CT) scans with dose distributions in (A) a patient who experienced postoperative anastomotic leakage after receiving a mean dose to the gastric fundus of 41.2 Gy and (B) a patient who did not experience postoperative anastomotic leakage after receiving a mean dose to the gastric fundus of 11.8 Gy. The areas within the yellow, light blue, dark blue, and purple lines received at least 40, 30, 20, and 10 Gy, respectively.
