Types of Esophagectomy
Transhiatal esophagectomy removes the esophagus through abdominal and neck incisions without opening the chest, while transthoracic (Ivor Lewis) esophagectomy accesses the esophagus through the chest and abdomen for better lymph node clearance. Minimally invasive and robotic-assisted esophagectomy use small incisions with cameras for both approaches, generally offering less pain and faster recovery compared to open surgery in appropriately selected patients.
