A Totally Laparoscopic Transhiatal Approach for Esophageal Cancer During Mediastinoscopic Esophagectomy

Background: Mediastinoscopic esophagectomy is a minimally invasive approach that avoids thoracotomy and single-lung ventilation. We previously performed this procedure using hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery (HALS) and recently established a totally laparoscopic transhiatal appr...

P1.182. Development of Difficulty Prediction Method for Mediastinoscopic Esophagectomy in Esophageal Cancer

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Background Mediastinoscopic esophagectomy is a minimally invasive procedure for esophageal cancer, but no established method exists to predict surgical difficulty. This study aimed to identify a difficulty...

P1.215. Segmental Loss of Signal on Continuous Intraoperative Nerve Monitoring Predicts Postoperative Pneumonia After Transmediastinal Esophagectomy

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background Recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis (RLNP) is a well-known risk factor for postoperative pneumonia in esophageal cancer surgery. Transmediastinal esophagectomy,...
