Abstract：Objective To summarize the research status and progress in the field of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)for esophageal cancer through bibliometrics,and provide reference for further research.Methods Relevant literature in this field were collected,and CiteSpace 6.3R1 and VOSviewer 1.6.20 were used to visualize the author and institutional collaborations,keyword co-occurrence,clustering,and burstness in this field.The information implied in the maps was analyzed with professional knowledge.Results A total of 360 articles were included.The number of publications showed that research in this field had roughly gone through three periods,while the cooperation between authors and institutions was relatively loose.The main keywords suggested that research in this field involved ERAS nursing and related treatments for esophageal cancer patients.Pain and nutritional support had always been the research priorities.In recent years,research hotspots have focused more on complications and mental health of esophageal cancer patients.Conclusion This study systematically analyzes and collates the research changes and evolution process in the field of ERAS for esophageal cancer,visually displaying the research hotspots and frontiers,which can provide a reference for further research.
