Core Tip |
Esophageal cancer is one of the most fatal malignant cancers worldwide, and survival is still unsatisfactory for locally advanced subjects. Until now, the optimal multimodality therapy has not yet been established. The assessment of nodal status might facilitate the selection of the most effective treatment for operable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We retrospectively analyzed 1490 OSCC patients classified according to their nodal statuses (N0 vs N1 vs N2-3). Our results demonstrate the positive role of combined therapy in OSCC with lymph node metastasis, and further suggest that aggressive surgical resection does not improve survival in patients with N2-3 status. |
