Outcomes of robotic esophagectomies for esophageal cancer by hospital volume: an analysis of the national cancer database
ConclusionMany robotic esophagectomies occur at institutions which performed relatively few RMIE and were associated with inferior short- and long-term outcomes. These data argue for regionalization of robotic esophagectomies or enhanced training in lower volume hospitals.
