Core Tip	As endoscopic resection becomes the standard of care for non-metastatic superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), it is imperative to identify cases with a high risk of lymphatic invasion. Current retrospective studies suggest an association between lymph node metastasis in superficial ESCC and factors such as larger tumor size, deeper invasion, poorer differentiation, more infiltrative growth patterns (INF-c), higher-grade tumor budding, positive lymphovascular invasion, and specific biomarkers. Future prospective studies are required to validate these findings, isolate other prognostic factors and confounders, and establish a more robust causal relationship.
