Thoracoscopic subtotal esophageal resection for benign esophageal diseases

Objective: Long-standing gastroesophageal reflux disease is the most common cause of a cicatricial stricture of the esophagus. The treatment of this pathology involves a wide range of methods including conservative and surgical options. Surgeons can encounter technical difficulties in case of concomitant neck and chest pathology.Clinical case: We report a case of a decompensated cicatricial stricture of the esophagus with concomitant paraesophageal hiatal hernia, refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease, and nontoxic multinodular goiter (166.9 cm3). Selecting the optimal management for such patients is often a challenge. Staged treatment significantly improves postoperative quality of life, but the increased length of hospital stay can negatively impact patient compliance.
