Material And Methods: Patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer were included from the nationwide Netherlands Cancer Registry (1989-2018).

Background: The number of elderly patients suffering from esophageal cancer is increasing, due to an increasing incidence of esophageal cancer and increasing life expectancy.

Methods: A prospectively documented database from December 2010 to June 2017 was analyzed, including all patients who underwent Ivor Lewis TMIE for esophageal cancer in three Dutch high-volume esophageal cancer centers.
