Only palliative treatment may be contemplated when advanced oesophageal cancers present with dysphagia. Operability depends on respiratory, hepatic and nutritional status. Resectability may be assessed on the information provided by bronchoscopy, thoracic CT scan and surgical exploration. Advanced resectable oesophageal cancers require oesophagectomy without thoracotomy and radiotherapy. We performed 93 oesophagectomies in 106 advanced oesophageal cancers with a mortality rate of less than 2%. Non resectable advanced oesophageal cancers require bypass procedures. We performed 13 in the 106 cases. Inoperable advanced oesophageal cancers require radiotherapy in the absence of a fistula, laser therapy or an endoprosthesis for dysphagia. |
