Abstract:
Esophageal cancer is a severe disease that requires a combined therapeutic approach to improve the prognosis. Once the initial assessment is completed, the patient's case should be discussed in a multidisciplinary conference in a specialized center to decide on an appropriate therapeutic strategy taking into account the stage of the disease and the patient's general condition. Several advances in treatment, both from a surgical technique standpoint, with the advent of minimally invasive and robotic surgery, and from a medical perspective, with the use of immunotherapy under certain conditions, have dramatically improved mortality rates. In this article, we explore the standards and latest innovations in the multimodal treatment of esophageal cancer.
