What is esophageal cancer?

Esophageal cancer is when bad cells grow in the esophagus, the tube that carries food and drinks from your mouth to your stomach. This tube is important for transferring the food. If these cells keep growing without stopping, they can form a lump called a tumor in the esophagus. If it’s not treated early, the cancer can move to other areas close by and even to different parts of your body.

There are two types of esophagus cancer:

Types-Of-Esophagus-Cancer
 
Squamous Cell Carcinoma: This kind starts in the cells that line the inside of the esophagus, in its upper 2/3rd.
 
Adenocarcinoma: This type begins in the special cells in the lower part of the esophagus that make mucus and other fluids.

Why Robotic Esophageal Cancer Surgery is the best choice for you or your loved ones?

Types of Surgery Description Benefits

Laparoscopic Surgery Uses small incisions and a camera to guide the surgery Less invasive, with smaller incisions and shorter recovery times
Robotic Surgery Keyhole surgery Less Pain, Less hospital stay, Early recovery
Better View (3D, 10x, HD) Less blood loss, Better nerve preservation
Flexible Instruments Enhances Precision, Enhances Accuracy, Early functional recovery

Types of Robotic Surgeries for Esophageal Cancer Treatment

Robotic surgeries have revolutionized the treatment of esophageal cancer by providing less invasive methods with improved results. The key robotic procedures for esophageal cancer include:

1

Adenocarcinoma

Esophageal adenocarcinoma usually occurs in the lower esophagus, often linked to GERD or Barrett’s esophagus. It begins in mucus-secreting gland cells.

2

Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Squamous cell carcinoma occurs in the upper and middle esophagus, often linked to smoking and alcohol. It starts in the squamous cells lining the esophagus.

3

Early-stage Cancers

These are limited to the surface layers of the esophagus and have not penetrated deeper into the esophageal walls or spread to other organs. They are often treatable with less invasive methods such as endoscopic procedures.

4

Locally Advanced Cancers

Locally advanced esophageal cancers invade deeper layers but remain confined to the esophagus, requiring surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.

The survival rate for esophageal cancer varies, typically ranging from 20% to 30% over a 5-year period, influenced by factors such as stage, overall health, and treatment modalities.

Esophageal cancer is managed by a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, and radiation oncologists.

Treatment modalities for esophageal cancer encompass a range of options such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and palliative care. Selection among these approaches is determined by factors including the cancer’s stage and the patient’s individual health profile.

Esophageal cancer can be potentially curable, particularly if diagnosed in its early stages. The likelihood of a cure is contingent upon factors such as the cancer’s stage, location, and the overall health status of the patient.

Tobacco and Alcohol Use: Both increase the risk of esophageal cancer significantly.

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Chronic acid reflux can lead to Barrett’s esophagus, a precursor to cancer.

Diet and Obesity: Poor diet, obesity, and lack of physical activity are known risk factors.

The final stage of esophageal cancer, known as stage 4 or advanced/metastatic cancer, indicates the spread of cancer cells to distant organs or lymph nodes. Palliative care is primarily focused on symptom management and enhancing the patient’s quality of life.

Robotic surgery involves the utilization of robotic arms and instruments under the precise control of a surgeon to conduct minimally invasive procedures. This technology offers improved precision, visualization, and dexterity during surgical interventions.
Surgeons favor robotic surgery due to its superior precision, flexibility, and control compared to traditional methods, enabling more accurate and minimally invasive procedures.
Currently, about 1 million surgeries are done worldwide using robots to help. Most of these surgeries, about 95% of them, are successful. The tools and stuff used in these surgeries make up a big part, around 53%. In 2021, these tools and stuff were worth about 3.6 billion US dollars.
Robotic surgery is frequently advantageous over open surgery for specific conditions because it involves smaller incisions, which can result in decreased pain, lower risk of infection, and faster recovery times.
Indeed, patients typically experience faster healing following robotic surgery, attributable to its minimally invasive approach, which leads to smaller incisions and less tissue trauma.
The recovery period following robotic surgery varies depending on factors such as the specific procedure and individual patient characteristics. Nonetheless, it generally tends to be shorter compared to open surgery, ranging from a few days to several weeks.
