Abstract

The technique of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) is constantly evolving. According to an international survey, the proportion of surgeons performing MIE has increased from only 14% in 2009 to more than 50% in 2014 (1, 2). MIE has been proven to improve perioperative results by MORO and TIME trials (3-6), and with comparable disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) to open surgery. However, thoracoscopic-assisted MIE requires a long learning curve and accumulation of a large number of cases. Both large Asian medical centers and a national database review in the United States indicated
