“…Our standard operative procedure is right transthoracic esophagectomy and resection of the lesser curvature with dissection of the mediastinal (involving the periesophageal region and areas around trachea and bilateral main bronchus) and the abdominal (involving the perigastric region and areas around the celiac axis) lymph nodes [1,10,11] . For upper thoracic esophageal cancer, or when metastases involve neck and/or upper mediastinal lymph nodes, we add bilateral neck dissection and perform a so-called three-field lymph node dissection.…”

“…Generally the prognosis for patients who suffer from oesophageal carcinoma has been regarded as poor,4 , 5 but recent advances, especially in diagnostics but also in treatment of the described disease, have led to an improvement in the outcome. This results in an increased attention focused on the incidence of a second malignancy in the reconstructed gastric tube 6 , 7…”

“…According to literature data, 0.9% to 2% of patients after esophagectomy develop cancer in the gastric substitute (1,2,6), which is also the organ most commonly used in case of gastrointestinal reconstruction, considering patients after esophageal resection (1,5,7). The time elapsed between esophageal resection and gastric carcinoma diagnosis ranged between 16 months and 21 years (6), mean values ranging between 50 and 72 months (1,2,8).…”
