When esophagectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy are combined, the majority of patients with esophageal malignancies can achieve long-term disease control. Patients with early-stage esophageal malignancies also frequently have favorable results from esophageal cancer surgery alone. Although esophagectomies come in a variety of forms, your Penn surgical team will almost certainly remove the malignancy and any surrounding lymph nodes using minimally invasive methods like laparoscopy. Compared to open esophagus surgery, laparoscopy requires fewer small incisions and is expected to cause less pain and need a shorter recovery period. Your lymph nodes are then examined by a pathologist (lab specialist) with specialized training in GI malignancies to see whether the cancer has spread.
