The current curative multimodal treatment of advanced esophageal cancers consists of neoadjuvant or perioperative chemo(radio)therapy followed by a radical surgical resection of the primary tumor and a 2- or 3-field lymphadenectomy. One of the most important predictors of long-term survival of esophageal cancer patients is lymph node involvement. The distribution pattern of lymph node metastases in esophageal cancer is unpredictable and depends on the primary tumor location, histology, T-stage and application of neoadjuvant or perioperative treatment...

Esophagectomy for esophageal cancer is associated with high morbidity. It remains unclear whether prehabilitation, a strategy aimed at optimizing patients' physical and mental functioning prior to surgery, improves postoperative outcomes. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the effect of prehabilitation on post-operative outcomes after esophagectomy. Data sources included Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and PEDro, with information from 1 January 2000 to 5 August 2023...

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a common chronic gastrointestinal disorder affecting both men and women. Nonerosive reflux disease generally affects more women, whereas GERD complications such as Barrett's esophagus (BE) or esophageal cancer affect more men. The aim of this study was to evaluate sex- and gender-specific symptoms and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among men and women with GERD. Patients with clinical signs of reflux and completion of 24-hour pH-Impedance testing at the University Hospital Cologne were included into the study...

Esophagogastroduodenoscopies (EGD) are aerosol-generating procedures that may spread respiratory pathogens. We aim to investigate the production of airborne aerosols and droplets during Cytosponge procedures, which are being evaluated in large-scale research studies and National Health Service (NHS)implementation pilots to reduce endoscopy backlogs. We measured 18 Cytosponge and 37 EGD procedures using a particle counter (diameters = 0.3-25 μm), taking measurements 10 cm from the mouth. Two particle count analyses were performed: whole procedure and event-based...

Esophagectomy is an exemplar of complex oncological surgery and is associated with a relatively high risk of major morbidity and mortality. In the modern era, where specific complications are targeted in prevention and treatment pathways, and where the principles of enhanced recovery after surgery are espoused, optimum outcomes are targeted via a number of approaches. These include comprehensive clinical and physiological risk assessment, specialist perioperative care by a high-volume team, and multimodal inputs throughout the patient journey that aim to preserve or restore nutritional deficits, muscle mass and function...

Although proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) administration was reported to be effective in preventing delayed bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), its effectiveness in esophageal ESD is still unknown. We assessed whether PPI or vonoprazan administration was effective in preventing posterior hemorrhage after esophageal ESD. This retrospective cohort study used the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database, and patients who underwent esophageal ESD between January 2012 and December 2020 were enrolled...

Abdominal bloating (AB) is a common symptom among patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, in clinical practice, its prevalence is likely underestimated due to the lack of objective tools to measure its frequency and severity. It is associated with dissatisfaction and worse quality of life, but data on its prevalence before and after mechanical control of GERD (i.e. fundoplication, magnetic sphincter augmentation, and antireflux mucosectomy) are lacking. To assess and determine the pre- and postoperative prevalence and severity of AB among patients with GERD, we conducted a structured literature search using MeSH and free-text terms in MEDLINE (via Pubmed), EMBASE, and Taylor & Francis Online between January 1977 and October 2022...

Surgical manipulation of the tracheobronchial complex is a contributing factor in pulmonary morbidity of esophagectomy. Accurate dissection between membranous trachea and bronchi with esophagus is essential. This study tests the feasibility of delivering indocyanine green (ICG) in an aerosol form to achieve tracheobronchial fluorescence (ICG-TBF). Patients with esophageal and esophagogastric junction carcinoma (N = 37) undergoing minimally invasive esophagectomy (McKeown type) were included. ICG was aerosolized by nebulization in supine position before thoracoscopy...

Anastomotic leakage (AL) after esophagectomy is the most impactful complication after esophagectomy. Ischemic conditioning (ISCON) of the stomach >14 days prior to esophagectomy might reduce the incidence of AL. The current trial was conducted to prospectively investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic ISCON in selected patients. This international multicenter feasibility trial included patients with esophageal cancer at high risk for AL with major calcifications of the thoracic aorta or a stenosis in the celiac trunk...

Anastomotic leak (AL) is a common and severe complication after esophagectomy. This study aimed to assess the performance of a consensus-based algorithm for diagnosing AL after minimally invasive esophagectomy. This study used data of the ICAN trial, a multicenter randomized clinical trial comparing cervical and intrathoracic anastomosis, in which a predefined diagnostic algorithm was used to guide diagnosing AL. The algorithm identified patients suspected of AL based on clinical signs, blood C-reactive protein (cut-off value 200 mg/L), and/or drain amylase (cut-off value 200 IU/L)...

Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) has been shown to be superior to open esophagectomy with reduced morbidity, mortality, and comparable lymph node (LN) harvest. However, MIE is technically challenging. This study aims to perform a pooled analysis on the number of cases required to surmount the learning curve (LC), i.e. NLC in MIE. PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched for articles from inception to June 2022. Inclusion criteria were articles that reported LC in video-assisted MIE (VAMIE) and/or robot-assisted MIE (RAMIE)...

This study aimed to investigate the significance of Hill classification to predict esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptomatology, and future prescriptions of proton pump inhibitors in clinical practice. A total of 922 patients (546 women and 376 men; mean age 54.3 [SD 18.4] years) who underwent gastroscopy between 2012 and 2015 were analyzed. Patient questionnaire regarding symptoms were compared with endoscopy findings. A medical chart review was done that focused on the prescription of PPIs, additional gastroscopies, and GERD surgery in a 3-year period before the index gastroscopy and in a 6-year period afterward...

Esophageal cancer patients require enteral nutritional support after esophagectomy. Conventional feeding enterostomy to the jejunum (FJ) is occasionally associated with small bowel obstruction because the jejunum is fixed to the abdominal wall. Feeding through an enteral feeding tube inserted through the reconstructed gastric tube (FG) or the duodenum (FD) using the round ligament of the liver have been suggested as alternatives. This meta-analysis aimed to compare short-term outcomes between FG/FD and FJ. Studies published prior to May 2022 that compared FG or FD with FJ in cancer patients who underwent esophagectomy were identified via electronic literature search...

Low sphincter pressure and inability of the crural diaphragm to elevate it at the esophagogastric junction are important pathophysiological mechanisms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The object of this study was to depict how Nissen fundoplication changed the resting and inspiratory pressures of the anti-reflux barrier. We selected 14 patients (eight males; mean age 42.7 years; mean body mass index 27.8) for surgery. They answered symptoms questionnaires and underwent high-resolution manometry (HRM) before and 6 months after Nissen fundoplication...
