［Objective］ The association of changes in physical function at 1 and 2 weeks after gastrointestinal surgery with postoperative conditions and surgical factors was surveyed to investigate intervention methods and the need for postoperative rehabilitation.
［Methods］ The subjects were 28 patients who had undergone surgery for digestive cancer. Knee extensor muscle strength, grip strength, SPPB（balance test, 4-meter walking time, and 5-sit-to-stand time）, and 6-minute walking distance were measured about 1 and 2 weeks after surgery for evaluation of physical function. Canonical correlation analysis was performed with physical function factors as dependent variables and preoperative and surgical data as independent variables.
［Results］ Physical function improved over 2 weeks. The 4-meter walking time and 5-sit-to-stand test were correlated with preoperative %FVC, days of postperative rehabilitation, and presence or absence of postoperative complications（p<0.01）.
［Conclusion］ Preoperative physical condition may affect postoperative functional improvement.
