TL;DR: This study provides a precise assessment of the comprehensive risk of metastasis and feasible predictive markers for T1 ESCC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging for predicting and detecting the early response to chemoradiotherapy of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Shunsuke Imanishi,Kiyohiko Shuto,Tomoyoshi Aoyagi,Tsuguaki Kono,Hiroshige Saito,Hisahiro Matsubara +5 more
TL;DR: The ADC values predicted the prognosis of patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma as well as the treatment response.
Journal ArticleDOI
The number of pathologic lymph nodes involved is still a significant prognostic factor even after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Yasunori Akutsu,Kiyohiko Shuto,Tsuguaki Kono,Masaya Uesato,Isamu Hoshino,Toru Shiratori,Yuka Isozaki,Naoki Akanuma,Takashi Uno,Hisahiro Matsubara +9 more
TL;DR: The correlation between the number of pathologic metastatic LNs in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) and surgical outcome has rarely been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary esophageal adenocarcinoma arising from heterotopic gastric mucosa: report of a case
Naoki Akanuma,Isamu Hoshino,Yasunori Akutsu,Kiyohiko Shuto,Toru Shiratori,Tsuguaki Kono,Masaya Uesato,Asami Sato,Yuka Isozaki,Tetsuro Maruyama,Nobuyoshi Takeshita,Hisahiro Matsubara +11 more
TL;DR: The patient has remained alive for more than 4 years after surgery, without any evidence of recurrence, and the tumor was identified to be a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma arising from HGM with invasion to the muscularis propria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment for diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in esophageal cancer using endoscopic ultrasound elastography
Tetsutaro Sazuka,Takashi Akai,Masaya Uesato,Daisuke Horibe,Mari Kuboshima,Hiroyuki Kitabayashi,Akinao Matsunaga,Akiko Kagaya,Yorihiko Muto,Nobuyoshi Takeshita,Tetsuro Maruyama,Yukimasa Miyazawa,Kiyohiko Shuto,Toru Shiratori,Tsuguaki Kono,Yasunori Akutsu,Isamu Hoshino,Hisahiro Matsubara +17 more
TL;DR: EUS elastography is useful for diagnosing lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer patients and its diagnostic performance is significantly higher than the values for conventional B-mode imaging.
