Robot-assisted cervical esophagectomy with simultaneous transhiatal abdominal procedure for thoracic esophageal carcinoma
Robot-assisted transcervical esophagectomy, a new technique for thoracic esophageal cancer, was safe and feasible under intraoperative management using nerve integrity monitoring without muscle relaxants. This procedure facilitates intraoperative monitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve activity, significantly shortening the total operative time.
