Abstract:
We performed a curative local excision for mucosal esophageal carcinoma through a thoracotomy with the help of intraoperative endoscopy and Lugol's staining. The mucosa and submucosa containing the lesion is completely resected, with neither narrowing nor shortening of the esophagus left remaining.
