Postoperative morbidity, mortality, and overall survival of patients after salvage esophagectomy are comparable to matched patients after planned resection. These results suggest that patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma who fail definitive CRT and recur locoregionally should be considered for salvage esophagectomy at experienced esophageal centers.
