[Modern principles of diagnosis and surgical treatment of cancer of the esophagus].
On the basis of results of treatment of 430 patients with cancer of the esophagus a conclusion was made that radical surgery for this disease consisted in extirpation of the esophagus with a single stage gastroplasty with a gastric tube from the greater curvature. The abdominal-cervical access is thought to be justified when the tumor is located on the border between the middle and lower third, in the lower third of the thoracic part of the esophagus, in the abdominal part of the esophagus. In cases of marked dysphagia, distant metastases, profound invasion into the neighboring organs the endoscopic diathermal tunnelization of the tumor followed by placing of endoprosthesis is necessary.
