Abstract
This contemporary guide to left thoracoabdominal oesophagectomy details the surgical aspects, surgical considerations, and outcomes from the two largest centres in the world that perform this procedure. The left thoracoabdominal approach increases the potential for negative resection margins in distal oesophageal, junctional, and cardial cancers. High-volume oesophageal centres should consider including the left thoracoabdominal approach in their operative options and ensure that their trainees are exposed to this unique approach to oesophagogastric resections.
