Arkadopoulos N et al. - The authors describe a technique of esophageal mobilization that combines transhiatal dissection with transection of both vagus nerves at 3 points: first, at a level 2 cm to 3 cm below tracheal bifurcation; second, 3 cm to 5 cm above the hiatus; and, finally, at the level of the hiatus. The additional esophageal length permitted the completion of an oncologically adequate resection and the execution of a safe intra-abdominal esophagojejunal anastomosis.
