Background The fourth edition of New Japanese classification system for esophageal achalasia was revised after a long interval of 30 years in 2012. In this new system, achalasia is morphologically classified into 3 types, based on its X-ray findings. However, the system has been limitedly used in Japan and has not been fully validated in terms of its predictive capability of postoperative outcomes...
Introduction We aimed to analyze the clinical and histological effects of chemotherapy in superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC). Methods We analyzed tumor samples from five patients with cT1bN1M0 who underwent subtotal esophagectomy following two courses of a new triplet chemotherapy regimen including docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (DCF). To assess the histological effects...
Background Sivelestat, a selective inhibitor of neutrophil elastase, has been reported to reduce acute lung injury associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). However, no study has addressed the effect of prophylactic sivelestat administration on the postoperative course following an esophagectomy in older patients. Methods In this retrospective study of patients aged >70 years,...
Right non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve is a rare nerve anomaly that communicates the right vagal nerve trunk to the laryngeal nerve directly in the neck, and is usually accompanied by an aberrant right subclavian artery. We report a case of thoracic esophagectomy with intraoperative neuromonitoring undertaken in a patient with these abnormalities. This case report concerns a 66-year-old man...
Background Patients with adventitia-invading (T3) tumors, which account for the majority of esophageal cancers, are indicated for surgery but still have a poor prognosis. Subclassifying T3 tumors based on clinical outcome would be useful for selecting adequate adjuvant therapies. Methods Using 268 esophageal cancer specimens from patients without preoperative treatment, the length of the vertical...
Background Intra-thoracic stomach (ITS) is a rare type of hiatal hernia. Laparoscopic surgery for ITS is technically demanding due to the distorted surgical anatomy. We incorporated assistive esophagoscopy during laparoscopic surgery for ITS. In this study, we assessed the clinical value of esophagoscopy in laparoscopic surgery. Methods A retrospective data analysis of 11 consecutive patients with...
Background This study was designed to conduct a retrospective analysis of late toxicity following chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for esophageal carcinoma. Methods The 49 first-onset esophageal carcinoma cases who allowed evaluation of late toxicity were the subjects. The incidence, severity, and background factors were analyzed for late toxicity (pneumonitis, pleural effusion, pericardial effusion). Performance...
