Implication

Retrospective analysis shows improved survival and oncological outcomes in esophageal cancer patients after minimally invasive esophagectomy, indicating the technique's potential benefits.

Key Points

Survival rates at 1, 2, and 3 years post minimally invasive esophagectomy were 76.1%, 49.1%, and 32.7%, respectively.
Eighty-four percent of patients received neoadjuvant therapy prior to esophagectomy, suggesting comprehensive treatment strategies.
The majority of patients had advanced cancer stages, indicating that minimally invasive surgery offers a viable option for improving outcomes.
Disease recurrence was noted in 21% of patients, highlighting the need for ongoing research into optimal selection criteria.
