Minimally invasive oesophagectomy with extended lymph node dissection and thoracic duct resection for early‐stage oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "British Journal of Surgery"
DOI: 10.1002/bjs.11487
Abstract: Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma is an aggressive disease owing to early and widespread lymph node metastases. Multimodal therapy and radical surgery may improve prognosis. Few studies have investigated the efficacy of radical lymph node and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ca.23801
Abstract: The thoracic duct (TD) drains most of the body's lymph back to the venous system via its lymphovenous junction (LVJ), playing a pivotal role in fluid homeostasis, fat absorption and the systemic immune response. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00268-017-4372-1
Abstract: BackgroundPreoperative simulation of the thoracic duct using magnetic resonance thoracic ductography (MRTD) would enable a safe lymph node dissection near the thoracic duct and the prevention of chylothorax after an esophagectomy. The aim of this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951120000323
Abstract: Abstract A 29-month-old girl had idiopathic massive pericardial effusion for over 6 months. Lymphangiography was performed for chronic and recurrent pericardial effusion and pulmonary lymphangiectasia, suspected based on CT findings. Magnetic resonance lymphangiography revealed chylolymphatic… read more here.
