Completed
Conditions
Esophageal Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: Endoscopic submucosal dissection
Procedure: Esophagectomy
Registration Number
NCT06060106
Lead Sponsor
Changhai Hospital
Brief Summary

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive alternative to esophagectomy for early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EESCC), The data of EESCC patients who received ESD or esophagectomy were retrospectively analyzed,The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of ESD and esophagectomy in EESCC,Risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were analyzed.

Detailed Description

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive alternative to esophagectomy for early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EESCC).The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of ESD and esophagectomy in EESCC,The data of EESCC patients who received ESD or esophagectomy were retrospectively analyzed. Overall survival (OS), disease specific survival (DSS), recurrence free survival (RFS), and procedure-related variables were compared between ESD and esophagectomy patients.Risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were analyzed.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
overall survival (OS)10 years

OS was measured from the date of ESD or esophagectomy until death from any cause

Recurrence free survival (RFS)10 years

RFS was measured from the date of ESD or esophagectomy until the first recurrence or metastasis

Disease specific survival (DSS)10 years

DSS was measured from the date of ESD or esophagectomy until death resulting from ESCC

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
R0 resection15 days

R0 resection was defined as horizontal and vertical margins free from both cancerous and precancerous tissues (HGIN), and without evidence of LVI. Pathological assessment was performed independently by two pathologists.

operation time12 hours

Time from start to finish of operation, measured in minutes

adjuvant therapy10 years

During follow-up, record whether Adjuvant therapy (i.e., additional endoscopy/surgery, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy) was administered.

postoperative complications30 days

Major postoperative complications includes bleeding, infection, and perforation,stricture and anastomotic leakage, adverse events assessed by blood tests, imageological examination and Endoscopic evaluation. Complications were graded according to the Clavien-Dindo classification system. The higher the complication grade, the more serious.

Post-operative hospitalization days30 days

Date of discharge minus date of operation,measured in days
