Popis: The lymph node metastasis (LNM) is one of the crucial risk factors for esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCC) prognosis. However, it is difficult to precisely determine the LNM status before surgery. The maximum tumor length (MTL) may reflect the ESCC growth speed and could be calculated accurately either with computed tomography or ultrasound endoscopy before esophagectomy. Therefore the present study was designed to determine if the MTL could reflect the LNM status for ESCC. A total of 22,660 ESCC patients was enrolled in this study from the ESCC database (1973-2015) in Henan Key Laboratory for Esophageal Cancer Research of the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University. Of these patients, there were 13,793 males with an mean age of 60±8, and 8,867 females with an mean age of 61±8. All the cases had been performed radical esophagectomy. The MTL and LNM records were retrieved from the medical records in hospitals. Based on the 6th version of UICC criteria, the LNM was classified as N0 and N1. The MTL was classified as 5 groups: Note: This abstract was not presented at the meeting.
