Transdiaphragmatic duplication of digestive tract in infants is very rare. Open surgery is the main surgical treatment. We report the clinical data of a child with gastrointestinal duplication across the diaphragm who underwent thoraco-laparoscopic surgery at 12 days were retrospectively analyzed, and to explore the experience of thoraco-laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of alimentary tract duplication across the diaphragm in children, we believe minimally invasive surgical resection using thoracolaparoscopy is safe, effective and clinically feasible, focusing on the skilled use of the technique to achieve the ideal surgical effect and appearance.

Introduction: With the advent of multimodality therapy and minimally invasive surgical approaches, patients suffering from carcinoma esophagus are showing promising outcomes. Hence, the frontier needs to be widened to assess the postoperative quality of life (QoL) of those surviving carcinoma esophagus. The objective of the study was to determine the short-term outcomes of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) /hybrid esophagectomies in carcinoma esophagus and the organ-specific QoL in survivors of MIE for carcinoma esophagus, and to compare health-related QoL in patients following MIE for carcinoma esophagus with the general population.

Background: The objective of this study was to demonstrate the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of intraoperative monitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerves during thoracoscopic and robotic 3-field esophagectomy.
Methods: This retrospective analysis details our initial experience using intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) during minimally invasive 3-field esophagectomy. Data were obtained from a prospectively maintained database and electronic medical records.

Background: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and postoperative quality of life for patients with esophageal cancer treated by either the modified or the traditional thoracolaparoscopic McKeown procedure.
Methods: This retrospective case-control study included 269 patients with esophageal cancer admitted to three medical centers in China from February 2020 to August 2022. The patients were divided according to surgical method into the layered hand-sewn end-to-end invagination anastomosis group (modified group) and the traditional hand anastomosis group (traditional group).
