Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis on the Efficacy and Safety of Salvage Esophagectomy for T4 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis of 208 cases shows that salvage esophagectomy for cT4 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma achieves a 72% R0 resection rate, offering a curative pathway for selected patients. However, it remains a high‐risk procedure with an 18% anastomotic leak rate and 30% major complications (Clavien–Dindo ≥ III).
