Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy [PDF]
Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) was introduced in the 1990s with the aim to decrease the rate of respiratory complications associated with thoracotomy, along with the benefits of reduced morbidity and a quicker return to normal activities provided by minimally invasive techniques.

Objective: Anastomotic leak remains a major source of morbidity after esophagectomy. Cervical anastomoses have been associated with higher leak rates compared with intrathoracic anastomoses; however, cervical leaks may have a less severe clinical impact.
