Extent of Lymph Node Dissection for cStage I Siewert Type I/II Cancers Based on Lymph Node Metastasis Risk Stratification

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The optimal surgical strategy and extent of lymph node (LN) dissection for clinical Stage I (cStage I) adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) remain controversial. This study aimed to evaluate surgical outcomes and clarify the prevalence and distribution of LN metastasis according to tumor characteristics in cStage I Siewert ...

Potential Survival Benefit of Neoadjuvant Docetaxel, Cisplatin and 5‐Fluorouracil Therapy in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Multiple Lymph Node Metastases: A Single‐Institute Propensity Score Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy with fluorouracil, cisplatin, and docetaxel (NAC‐DCF) is the current standard neoadjuvant regimen for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, its substantial toxicity underscores the need to identify patients who derive the greatest benefit.

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

open access: yesAnnals 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).

Influence of dietary intake and eating patterns on reactive hypoglycemic events in patients postesophagectomy: A prospective observational study using continuous glucose monitoring

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Esophagectomy causes anatomical changes that can lead to rapid food transit and reactive hypoglycemia (RH). Patients are advised on eating patterns postesophagectomy to prevent RH, but its true incidence and the impact of dietary recommendations remain under‐researched.

Assessment of graft perfusion and oxygenation for improved outcome in esophageal cancer surgery : protocol for a single-center prospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: The main cause of anastomotic leakage (AL) is tissue hypoxia, which results from impaired perfusion of the pedicle stomach graft after esophageal reconstruction. Clinical judgment is unreliable in determining graft perfusion.
