Zusammenfassung: | Background
Endoscopic‐assisted transoral surgery (TOS) for superficial cancer of the pharyngo‐esophageal junction (PEJ) is risk of stricture, and therapeutic outcomes are unclear. This study aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes of endoscopic‐assisted TOS for superficial PEJ cancers.
Methods
We retrospectively compared clinical outcomes of endoscopic‐assisted TOS for superficial PEJ cancers (group A) and of other sites in the hypopharynx (group B).
Results
The group A comprised 12 lesions in 12 patients, and group B comprised 198 lesions in 146 patients. Group A and group B exhibited en bloc resection rates of 100% and 99%. Median operative times were 82 and 37 min (p |
