Conversion Therapy for cT4b and M1 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Comprehensive Systematic Review

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We systematically reviewed conversion therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and propose a response‐based treatment strategy for cT4b and M1 disease. For cT4b, we emphasize definitive chemoradiotherapy with timed re‐evaluation and selective salvage or chemoselection to surgery; for M1, conversion is reserved for limited‐burden responders with ...

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

, 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.

Esophagectomy for benign disease [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018
Esophagectomy for benign disease is uncommonly used but it is an important option to consider in those patients who have lost function of this organ. Esophageal resection is, in fact considered as a last resort for benign disease, after multiple failed conservative treatments, when the primary disease is not amenable to other treatments and the ...

Impact of Circular Stapler Size on Short‐Term Outcomes and Long‐Term Quality of Life After McKeown Esophagectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the impact of circular stapler size on both short‐term outcomes and long‐term QOL after McKeown esophagectomy. We revealed that short‐term outcomes, including anastomotic leakage and stenosis, did not differ between patients who underwent anastomosis with a 21 mm stapler and those with a 23 mm stapler.

Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Esophageal cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with regional variations in histological subtypes. Adenocarcinoma predominates in Western countries, whereas squamous cell carcinoma is more common in Asia. Despite advances in multimodal therapy, esophagectomy remains the cornerstone of curative treatment, and the development of various ...

A Population-based Study on Lymph Node Retrieval in Patients with Esophageal Cancer: Results from the Dutch Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Audit [PDF]

, 2018
Background: For esophageal cancer, the number of retrieved lymph nodes (LNs) is often used as a quality indicator. The aim of this study is to analyze the number of retrieved LNs in The Netherlands, assess factors associated with LN yield, and explore ...
