SAGES/AFS: Devil is in the Details: MIS Esophagectomy
This course will focus on all aspects of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) starting with a brief introduction on the history of esophagectomy; trials and tribulations to the state of the art. We will review the oncologic principles of MIE - regardless of approach. Additionally, the technical components of the lap/vats/robotic approach will be discussed with an emphasis on the details for a practicing surgeon performing this complex procedure. We will also discuss the considerations of benign pathology and review evidence discussing the challenges of MIE for benign pathology. Future directions in the realm of MIE will also be reviewed and presented, including the role of SLN biopsy in esophageal cancer as well as advanced intraoperative imaging and the evolving role of AI. The last component of the session will include an audience poll with panel discussion of 10 questions to surgeons routinely performing MIE.
Objectives
- Apply oncologic principles of esophagectomy to the different surgical approaches to esophagectomy - including open/lap/VATS/robotic.
- Develop deeper understanding of the clinical and technical considerations of MIE.
- Evaluate the current evidence for SLN biopsy, advanced imaging, and AI as it relates to esophageal resection.
