Predictors for Lymph Node Metastasis and Survival of Patients with T1b Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Treated with Surgery and Endoscopic Therapy: An Analysis of Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Database

Limited data exists regarding the long-term outcomes of endoscopic therapy (ET) with or without chemoradiation therapy (CRT) for T1b esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Our aim was to identify the risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in T1b EAC and assess how the chosen treatment modality affects overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS).
