Abstract
|
|
|
Over the decades, the treatment of the esophageal cancer has been debated. Multimodal therapy is a important keystone in advanced esophageal cancer. Neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy is now known to provide advantages for treating stage II and stage III esophageal squamous cell cancer and can also be considered for the esophageal adenocarcinoma. Definitive chemoradiation therapy results in long-term survival compared with surgery alone. This review aims to provide recent consensus recommendations based on the data and literatures.
