Esophageal submucosa: The watershed for esophageal cancer [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011
Submucosal esophageal cancers (pT1b) are considered superficial, implying good survival. However, some are advanced, metastasizing to regional lymph nodes. Interplay of cancer characteristics and lymphatic anatomy may create a watershed, demarcating low-risk from high-risk cancers.
