Abstract:
Minimally invasive esophagectomy for the surgical treatment of esophageal cancer has gradually been recognized and applied. With the application of robot-assisted technology in esophageal surgery, robot-assisted esophagectomy has been carried out in large domestic centers, and its feasibility and safety have been recognized by some domestic experts. In view of no advice or guidelines about robot-assisted esophagectomy has been written before, Committee of Esophageal Cancer in China Anticancer Association organized relevant domestic experts to establish this expert recommendation for standardization of robot-assisted esophagectomy, aiming at helping surgeons perform this complex procedure safely.
