Prognostic value of the extent of lymphadenectomy for esophageal cancer-specific survival among T1 patients

Prognostic value of the extent of lymphadenectomy for esophageal cancer-specific survival among T1 patients

Abstract Background Clinically, there are no clear guidelines on the extent of lymphadenectomy in patients with T1 esophageal cancer. Studying the minimum number of lymph nodes for resection may increase cancer-specific survival. Methods Patients who underwent esophagectomy and lymphadenectomy at T1...
