Siewert II esophagogastric junction cancer: total gastrectomy or esophagectomy?
Although no significant differences in morbidity between the two procedures were noted, type II errors could be a possible cause. This study suggests that unnecessary esophagectomies can be avoided without jeopardizing surgical or oncologic outcomes by opting for a less morbid procedure.
