DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i12.1340
Abstract: BACKGROUND In esophageal squamous carcinoma, lymphadenectomy along the left recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is recommended owing to its highly metastatic potential. However, this procedure is difficult due to limited working space in the left upper… read more here.
