Subjects comprised 22 outpatients who had completed post-operative adjuvant therapy and who had been discharged from hospital for at least 6 months following esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.Semi-structured interviews were conducted during outpatient visits and data were analyzed using the modified grounded theory approach.Results revealed that the process of post-operative lifestyle restructuring by patients receiving adjuvant therapy during post-esophagectomy recovery could be explained by the core categories of narrowing of sphere of daily life and accepting narrowing of sphere of daily life and acquiring a personalized way of life in exchange for being alive.
