The success rate of mid-term esophageal cancer surgery is still very high, with clinical data around 80%. However, the specific success rate of surgery is decided according to the location of the lesion, such as: upper-middle, middle or lower esophagus and other specific tumor sites. 1. Lower esophagus: left-sided open heart surgery is less difficult and has the highest success rate. 2. Middle esophagus: requires a combined thoraco-abdominal incision, which makes the operation more difficult and the success rate relatively lower. 3. Upper middle esophagus: because of the special location of the tumor, it needs to be operated by cervical, thoracic and abdominal triple incision, and the complexity and difficulty of the operation as well as the operation process will be increased, which is difficult and the success rate of the operation is a bit lower than the previous two parts. Overall, the success rate of mid-term surgery for esophageal cancer is still high, and the earlier the treatment, the better. To improve the success rate of surgery and avoid metastasis of lymph nodes after surgery, patients need to undergo regular review and choose whether radiotherapy and other auxiliary treatments are needed under the guidance of professional doctors, so as to ensure that the most ideal therapeutic effect can be achieved.
