“…Similar to open esophagectomy, MIE can consist of transhiatal esophagectomy (8), McKeown esophagectomy (9) or Ivor Lewis esophagectomy (10), but Ivor Lewis or McKeown procedures are usually performed since they allow adequate thoracic lymph node dissection (11,12). In patients with esophageal tumors above the level of the carina, an Ivor Lewis procedure is unfeasible because it might compromise adequate resection margins.…”
