Risk Factors for Local Recurrence and Optimal Length of Esophagectomy in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Abstract: Local recurrence after esophagectomy in esophageal cancer is related to lymphatic metastasis rather than to proximal margin status, which raises the possibility that the main mechanism of local recurrence is submucosal lymphatic metastasis. Esophagectomy with LPM more than 5 cm is recommended for esophageal cancer with nodal metastasis.

“…Endoscopic resection is associated with a lower morbidity rate, but recurrence rates are higher than those of surgery. Lymph node involvement is a risk factor for tumour recurrence. In an analysis of 715 patients with early oesophageal adenocarcinoma from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, Gamboa and colleagues found that tumour grade, T classification and tumour size were independently associated with lymph node involvement.…”

“…[ 23 ] In one of these studies, which was conducted in 352 patients, Barbour et al[ 24 ] reported that a clear proximal border of approximately 5 cm was an independent prognostic factor in survival. On the other hand, in another study in 516 patients with ESCC, Kang et al[ 25 ] found the mean proximal resection margin to be 3.4±2.5 cm, and they found the possibility of recurrence to be significantly higher in patients with N (+) with a border length of >5 cm. However, in the current study, the survival rates of the patients with a proximal surgical margin length between 5 and 10 cm were statistically significantly higher than the others (p<0.001).…”

“…Previous studies have shown that advanced stage indicators including T and N in pathological examination are risk factors for the recurrence of ESCC following curative resection [17][18][19][20][21]. Wang et al [18] reported that patients with pN had a much higher recurrence rate than patients without pN.…”

“…In such analysis of ESCC patients who underwent neoadjuvant CRT and esophagectomy, lymphovascular invasion was indicated as an independent risk factor for recurrence [14][15][16]. Advanced stage indicators including T and N in pathological diagnosis are also risk factors for recurrence of ESCC following curative resection with or without neoadjuvant therapy [17][18][19][20][21]. However, the risk factors for recurrence after esophagectomy with NAC alone for ESCC have not been clari ed so far.…”
