Abstract
While salvage esophagectomy for locoregional failure after chemoradiotherapy should be employed with great caution, it appears to be a feasible and effective therapeutic option for highly selected patients, especially with early pathologic stage disease. Salvage esophagectomy can be recommended as the only current curative treatment option for patients with locoregional failure after chemoradiotherapy.
