Sentinel node navigated surgery (SNNS) might offer a less invasive alternative to esophagectomy to tailor the extent of lymphadenectomy in patients with high-risk T1 esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC)…
Optimal management following radical endoscopic resection (R0 ER) of T1 esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is still a matter of debate due to conflicting reports on the risk for lymph node metastases (LNM). In case of histological risk factors for LNM, i.e…
The neoplastic progression risk in Barrett’s Esophagus (BE) increases with increasing BE length. Therefore, some guidelines recommend that patients with ultra long-segment BE ≥10cm (ULS-BE) are referred to an expert center, however, recommendations on further management are lacking…
