Summary: Despite improved outcomes, anastomotic strictures are still associated with minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE), especially in North America where there is limited research on this topic.

Summary: The increasing prevalence of morbid obesity in the United States has led to a rise in bariatric surgery. This report presents a case study of a 55-year-old woman with previous Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery who was diagnosed with invasive adenocarcinoma, highlighting the need for minimally invasive techniques and the safety and feasibility of esophagectomy in this patient population.

Summary: This study suggests that minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) is associated with higher 5-year survival compared to open esophagectomy (OE) in patients with esophageal cancer, especially total MIE.

Summary: This observational pilot study compared thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) for pain control after robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE). Results showed that TEA provided better and longer-lasting pain relief compared to PCA. TEA was also associated with reduced length of hospital stay. Therefore, TEA may be superior to PCA for postoperative pain management in RAMIE patients.

Summary: The study found that a minimally invasive abdomen-only approach for esophageal resection in specific patient populations is as safe as a minimally invasive Ivor Lewis approach, with the added benefit of shorter operative duration.

Summary: By comparing different techniques and approaches, this study found that patients who underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy had lower rates of postoperative complications regardless of the specific surgical technique used.

Summary: In patients with cT4b esophageal cancer treated with dCRT followed by a salvage RAMIE, a radical resection rate of 92% was achieved, with acceptable complications and promising survival rates. These results demonstrate the feasibility of a curative surgical treatment for patients with initially irresectable esophageal cancer but underscore the importance of proper preoperative patient selection.

Summary: Salvage minimally invasive esophagectomy (S-MIE) is more feasible and advantageous than salvage open esophagectomy (S-OE), with lower rates of postoperative pneumonia and total complications.

Summary: This study is a randomized controlled trial comparing RAMIE and MIE as surgical treatments for resectable esophageal adenocarcinoma or adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction in the Western World. The primary outcome is the total number of resected lymph nodes in the abdomen and mediastinum per lymph node station.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes of TMIE and HMIE in Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy. The results showed that TMIE had better short-term outcomes in terms of blood loss and postoperative complications compared to HMIE. Additionally, the HMIE group had higher pain scores and more patients requiring additional analgesia after surgery.

Summary: This retrospective study compared 165 esophageal carcinoma patients who underwent esophagectomy with either RAMIE or conventional MIE. RAMIE had longer operative times but showed better outcomes in terms of postoperative complications and pulmonary complications compared to conventional MIE.

Summary: While RMIE and tMIE showed no difference in 90-day mortality and readmission rates, RMIE demonstrated better outcomes in terms of positive surgical margins, number of lymph nodes evaluated, and conversion to open rates.

Summary: Implementation of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol for three-stage minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) resulted in earlier ambulation and lower pulmonary complications, without a change in anastomotic leakage or length of hospital stay. Further studies on minimizing leakage should be addressed in ERAS for MIE.

Summary: The paradigm of esophageal cancer treatment has shifted towards minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) over open esophagectomy (OE), with MIE showing trends towards decreased 30-day and 90-day postoperative mortality and fewer major cardiovascular and respiratory complications. Minor postoperative complications may also be reduced with MIE.

Summary: The study demonstrated that pteryxin can suppress adipogenesis through different mechanisms, with PTX50 showing the most effective inhibition in the early stage of adipogenesis and potentially serving as a promising candidate to improve obesity and carbohydrate metabolism.
