Abstract

Although the standard treatment for intramucosal esophageal cancer without lymph node metastasis is endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), we sometimes encounter patients who are not able to undergo a transoral endoscopic examination. Here, we report a surgical procedure consisting of transgastric retrograde ESD to treat early esophageal cancer (T1a-EP, N0, M0) because of a stricture after hypopharyngeal cancer surgery. This retrograde ESD procedure can be a safe and effective treatment option for early esophageal cancer. This is the first report of a surgical retrograde ESD method for esophageal cancer.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
