| Core Tip |
The transhiatal procedure including lower mediastinal lymph node (LN) dissection is widely performed to treat esophagogastric junction (EGJ) adenocarcinoma. However, microanatomy of the lower mediastinum is unclear and the classification of lower mediastinal LNs is obscure. Therefore, we performed a histological study to investigate the microanatomy of the lower mediastinum in seven cadavers. We identified two fasciae surrounding the esophagus in the lower mediastinum and classified the periesophageal lower mediastinal tissue into three areas based on these fasciae. LNs were found within all classified areas. These data provide useful landmarks for EGJ adenocarcinoma surgery. |
