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 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: 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 article reviews the current state of research on minimally invasive esophagectomy, comparing outcomes of minimally invasive surgery, robot-assisted surgery, and open surgery, and discussing how surgeons can select the most appropriate method based on these outcomes.

Summary: This article provides a comprehensive review of the literature comparing perioperative outcomes and long-term survival between robotic-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) and minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) for esophageal cancer. The results suggest that RAMIE is comparable to MIE in perioperative outcomes, but may have advantages in lymph node dissection in the abdominal cavity, lymph nodes dissected along the left recurrent laryngeal nerve, and 3-year disease-free survival.

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: This study compared the differences in lymph node dissection (LND) between minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and open esophagectomy (OE) in thoracic esophageal cancer patients. The results suggest that MIE may have an advantage in lymph node dissection of the upper mediastinum 2L and 4L groups, but is similar to OE in other LND stations.

Summary: Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) is a safe and feasible procedure that can reduce cardiopulmonary complications, wound infections, blood loss, and hospital stays compared to open esophagectomy.

Summary: This study reviewed the modern experience with laparoscopic transhiatal esophagectomy for distal esophageal adenocarcinoma in 82 patients. The success rate of the surgery was high, with an overall 5-year survival rate of 52%, although postoperative complications were common. Most patients were clinical stage III, and 68.3% received neoadjuvant chemoradiation.

Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the long-term survival outcomes and factors associated with overall survival in esophageal cancer patients undergoing a minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. The results showed that MILE offers favorable long-term overall and disease-free survival outcomes, and age, Karnofsky performance status score, stage IV disease, and disease recurrence were identified as prognostic factors for overall survival.

Summary: Unplanned conversion to open esophagectomy during minimally invasive esophagectomy is associated with significantly higher morbidity and a 2.6-fold increased risk of death compared to completed MIE or planned open esophagectomy. The ACS NSQIP Surgical Risk Calculator may help identify patients at higher risk for conversion to open esophagectomy during MIE.

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: By comparing the surgical outcomes of MIE and OE for esophageal cancer, it was found that MIE had lower incidences of in-hospital mortality, morbidities, such as surgical site infection and anastomotic leakage, and a shorter postoperative length of stay; however, it also had higher incidences of vocal cord dysfunction and prolonged intubation period after esophagectomy.

Summary: The study indicates that compared to hybrid esophagectomy, completely minimally invasive esophagectomy reduces postoperative pulmonary infections and overall complications in resectable esophageal and GEJ cancer cases. There were no significant differences in 6-month overall survival and disease-free survival rates between the two approaches.

Summary: Minimally invasive surgery is a growing field that has replaced many open surgical techniques. Mediastinoscope-assisted esophagectomy is a promising technique that aims to decrease the surgical burden and enhance recovery.
