FAQ’S
Who performs esophageal surgery?
Esophagectomy for esophageal surgery is performed by a thoracic or general surgeon who is experienced and performs it on a regular basis.
What kind of surgery is done for esophagus cancer?
An esophagectomy is a procedure that involves removing some or more of the oesophagus. If cancer has not spread far beyond the oesophagus, it may be possible to treat it by removing the oesophagus (and any nearby lymph nodes). Unfortunately, most esophageal cancers are not detected early enough for surgery to be effective.
A small portion of the stomach is often removed as well. The remaining part of the stomach is then bound to the upper part of the oesophagus. The new oesophagus is formed by pulling a portion of the stomach up into the chest or neck.
Is esophagectomy a major surgery?
The most common surgical treatment for esophageal cancer is esophagectomy. It is performed to either kill cancer or to alleviate the symptoms. It is a surgical procedure that involves removing some or more of the swallowing tube (oesophagus) between the mouth and stomach and reconstructing it with a piece of another organ, most commonly the stomach.Â
Esophagectomy is a popular procedure for advanced esophageal cancer, and it’s often used to treat Barrett’s oesophagus when active precancerous cells are present. When previous surgeries to preserve the oesophagus have failed, such as with end-stage achalasia or strictures, or after ingestion of material that is harmful to the oesophagus, an esophagectomy might be suggested.
How long does esophagectomy surgery take?
The diseased esophageal tissue which may include any surrounding cancerous tissue and surrounding lymph nodes is removed during the operation, and a portion of the stomach is then used to reconstruct the oesophagus. The procedure takes between four and six hours, depending on whether it is minimally invasive or accessible.
Can esophageal tumors be removed?
The aim of an esophagectomy is to eliminate the entire tumour and prevent it from returning or spreading. The tumour, a portion of the oesophagus, surrounding tissue, and lymph nodes where cancer cells may have spread are all removed by the surgeon. The stomach is then attached to the healthy oesophagus that is still intact.
