BACKGROUND Due to its anatomical location, carcinoma of the upper thoracic esophagus (i.e. below the thoracic inlet and above the carina) often results in early invasion of adjacent structures and precludes radical resection. The prognosis of carcinoma of the upper thoracic esophagus was considered worse than that of distal esophagus. There are few studies specifically addressing the prognostic...

متن کاملSurgical management of esophageal carcinoma.
BUMC PROCEEDINGS 2003;16:280–284 Although esophageal carcinoma is not the most common tumor—it accounts for only 5% of all gastrointestinal tumors and 1% of all new tumors—it has nearly a 1:1 mortality ratio: each year there are 14,000 new cases and 13,000 related deaths in the USA. Men have esophageal carcinoma 3 to 5 times more often than women, and black men are 3 times more likely than whit...
متن کاملSurgical management of esophageal carcinoma.
Surgical management of esophageal carcinoma is reviewed. The anatomy and biology are briefly mentioned, since these factors mitigate against the success of surgery. Staging, the key to proper treatment allocation and prognosis, is discussed, including the use of endoscopic ultrasonography, positron emission tomography, and thoracoscopy/laparoscopy. Patient selection and preparation for surgery ...
