Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Evaluate the feasibility and outcome of minimally invasive management of esophageal cancer regarding 1. Surgical technique: A totally minimally invasive technique (combined thoracoscopic and laparoscopic approaches) for esophagectomy will be used in this study. Also, a hybrid technique (thoracoscopic approach with laparotomy or laparoscopic approach with thoracotomy) will be included. 2. Histopathology * Assessment of surgical margins * Assessment of the number of lymph nodes 3. Peri-operative outcome including * Operative time * Conversion to open * Blood loss * Hospital stays 4. Evaluation of recurrence, disease-free survival and overall survival rates: according to The Kaplan-Meier estimator 5. Morbidity and mortality.
