Introduction: Chronic alcohol consumption and tobacco usage are major risk factors for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Excessive tobacco and alcohol consumption lead to oxidative stress and the generation of reactive carbonyl species (RCS) which induce DNA damage and cell apoptosis. This phenomenon contributes to cell damage and carcinogenesis in various organs including ESCC.

Background: Corrosive substance ingestion is rare but can cause severe injury, especially to the upper gastrointestinal tract, and can be a potentially fatal event. Various surgical procedures have been advocated for gastroesophageal reconstruction, but especially those using the right colon, when the ileocecal valve is preserved for gastric reconstruction, are briefly exposed in literature and have not been studied in humans by controlled studies. Using the right colon is believed to be beneficial because of the anti-reflux mechanism of the ileocecal valve.

According to 2021 statistics, esophageal cancer ranked as the 18th most common cancer and the 10th leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Korea, predominantly manifesting as squamous cell carcinoma. The incidence of esophageal cancer in Korea has been on a gradual decline, while the proportion of early-stage diagnoses has increased, leading to an improvement in the 5-year relative survival rate. The Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service, reports that around 800 esophagectomy procedures are performed each year.

An aorto-oesophageal fistula (AOF) is a pathological communication between the thoracic aorta and the oesophagus. It can induce life-threatening hematemesis, which is unique among the other types of gastrointestinal haemorrhage in that the vomiting is bright red and represents an arterial bleed. Nevertheless, it is notable that over 70% of cases are associated with thoracic aortic aneurysms, particularly as a postoperative complication following open surgery, and arguably more so following endovascular repair.

Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a prevalent and aggressive gastrointestinal tumor, particularly in East Asia. However, there is a lack of consensus on the long-term survival outcomes of intrathoracic anastomosis and cervical anastomosis following esophagectomy. This study aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the long-term survival outcomes of these two anastomosis techniques.
