Abstract:
Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of the multidisciplinary treatment for patient with localized esophageal cancer. Lymphadenectomy is a pivotal step of radical esophagectomy, which is advanced technique required. Although the consensus on mediastinal lymph node dissection in the radical esophagectomy had been published in China, no agreement or consensus are available on the abdominal lymph node dissection. Based on the latest guidelines or consensuses, available clinical evidence, and agreements from Chinese expert panel of abdominal lymph node dissection in the radical esophagectomy, Chinese Society of Esophageal Cancer, China Anti-cancer Association organized experts to discuss and write this consensus. The expert consensus focuses on the key points of and makes recommendations for surgical approach, extent of lymphadenectomy, quality control and complication management for abdominal lymph node dissection in the radical esophagectomy in China. Applying a standard and efficient abdominal lymph node dissection in the radical surgical resection for patient with esophageal cancer is important and indispensable.
