Egyéb

• Enhanced CT of chest and abdomen, ultrasound of cervical lymph nodes, whole body PET-CT (optional) or EBUS (optional), etc.
  • The clinical staging was determined by imaging examination as (AJCC/UICC8th Edition) T4b unresectable (can be treated by two judged by a senior thoracic surgeon) [52], multiple lymphadenopathy (estimated lymph node metastasis ≥ 3), multiple sites Patients with enlarged lymph nodes (estimated number of lymph node metastases ≥ 2) or distant metastasis (M1); patients with enlarged lymph nodes Cervical lymph nodes (the short-axis diameter of lymph nodes determined by CT or ultrasonography is > 0.8 cm, or the short and long diameters of lymph nodes are > 0.8 cm.
  • 0.65);
• The pathology of gastroscopy is non-squamous cell carcinoma;
• Have other tumors in the past (except for those who have suffered from cervical carcinoma in situ or local skin basal cell carcinoma and have been cured); Other exclusion criteria.
• recent or current use of hormones or immunosuppressants;

• Squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed by the pathological type of gastroscopic biopsy;
• The primary tumor is located in the thoracic, and the primary site of esophageal cancer is determined by the location of the esophagus where the upper edge of the mass is located (upper thoracic esophagus: from the entrance of the thoracic cavity, down to the level of the lower edge of the azygos vein arch, 20 cm from the incisors to the endoscopy <25 cm; middle thoracic esophagus: from the lower border of the azygos vein arch, down to the level of the inferior pulmonary vein, 25 cm to 30 cm from the incisors on endoscopy; lower thoracic esophagus: from the level of the inferior pulmonary veins, down to the stomach, internal Endoscopy 30 cm to 40 cm from the incisors);
• According to the above examinations, patients with cII-III stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after received neoadjuvant therapy (including neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant immunotherapy or neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy, etc.), preoperative clinical evaluation was performed. Patients with esophageal cancer of clinical stage ycT1b-3N0-1M0 who can undergo surgical resection (enhanced chest and abdomen CT, cervical lymph node ultrasound and other methods to evaluate whether the tumor has obvious external invasion, whether the mediastinal lymph nodes have obvious enlargement, whether there are distant organs metastases or not); if the primary tumor is suspected to be T4b, multiple mediastinal lymph node metastases, or remote metastases, etc., whole-body PET-CT, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) (optional) and other tests are performed to further clarify the clinical stage), and there is no large cervical lymph nodes (<0.8 cm in short-axis diameter of lymph nodes by CT or ultrasonography, or <0.65 in short- and long-axis diameters of lymph nodes)
