Core Tip |
Recurrences of pT1N0 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after esophagectomy are usually metachronous regional lymph node or distant metastases. We analyzed 199 thoracic pT1N0 ESCC cases who underwent esophagectomy and thoracoabdominal two-field lymphadenectomy. Forty-seven (24%) patients had a recurrence during 3 to 178 (median, 33) mo. Upper thoracic tumor location, angiolymphatic invasion, and submucosal invasion thickness were independent predictors of tumor recurrence, and a nomogram for predicting recurrence-free survival with these three predictors was constructed. These results should be useful for designing optimal individual follow-up and therapy for patients with T1N0 ESCC. |
