Abstract
This is a case report regarding the utility of lung ultrasonography for the postoperative respiratory management of esophagectomy. Herein, we reported a 50-year-old male who developed severe oxygenation disorder following esophagectomy. Lung ultrasonography was helpful in bilateral pneumothorax diagnosis and allowed us to judge the eligibility of thoracic drainage.
