Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This trial showed a significantly increased R0 resection rate but failed to demonstrate a survival benefit, possible explanations are low statistical power, a high rate of proximal gastric cancer including AEG and/or a better outcome than expected after radical surgery alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benchmarking Complications Associated with Esophagectomy.

TL;DR: Standardized methods provide contemporary international benchmarks for reporting outcomes after esophagectomy, using a standardized dataset with specific definitions to prospectively collect international data to provide a benchmark for complications and outcomes associated with esphagectomy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histomorphologic Tumor Regression and Lymph Node Metastases Determine Prognosis Following Neoadjuvant Radiochemotherapy for Esophageal Cancer: Implications for Response Classification
Paul M. Schneider,Stephan Baldus,Ralf Metzger,Martin Kocher,Rudolf Bongartz,Elfriede Bollschweiler,Hartmut Schaefer,Juergen Thiele,Hans Peter Dienes,Rolf P. Mueller,Arnulf H. Hoelscher +10 more
TL;DR: Histomorphologic tumor regression and lymph node status (ypN) were significant prognostic parameters for patients with complete resections (R0) following neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy for esophageal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response evaluation by endoscopy, rebiopsy, and endoscopic ultrasound does not accurately predict histopathologic regression after neoadjuvant chemoradiation for esophageal cancer.
Paul M. Schneider,Ralf Metzger,Hartmut Schaefer,Frank Baumgarten,Daniel Vallböhmer,Jan Brabender,E. Wolfgarten,Elfriede Bollschweiler,Stephan Baldus,Hans P. Dienes,Arnulf H. Hoelscher +10 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic accuracy of endoscopy, rebiopsy, and EUS is inadequate for objective response evaluation after neoadjuvant chemoradiation and can be omitted for this purpose in the clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathohistological classification systems in gastric cancer: Diagnostic relevance and prognostic value
TL;DR: The latest results from gastric cancer studies indicate that it might be useful to integrate DNA- and RNA-based features of Gastric cancer into the classification systems to establish prognostic relevance.
