Here, we report the successful treatment of esophageal cancer in a patient with pectus excavatum. A 77\u2010year\u2010old man with esophageal cancer was referred to our hospital for further treatment. He was diagnosed with multiple early esophageal squamous cell carcinomas. The patient had pectus excavatum, but because it was asymptomatic, a video\u2010assisted thoracoscopic radical esophagectomy in the left lateral decubitus position without pectus excavatum repair was selected. Despite the patient's unusual anatomy, video\u2010assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the left decubitus position allowed for good operative field visibility, as the videoscope was inserted from the side of the diaphragm. This operative procedure is useful in patients with esophageal cancer who also have pectus excavatum. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second report of video\u2010assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy in an esophageal cancer patient with pectus excavatum.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ases.12195","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,25]],"date-time":"2015-08-25T11:12:06Z","timestamp":1440501126000},"page":"333-336","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Video\u2010assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the left lateral decubitus position in an esophageal cancer patient with pectus excavatum"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Shinsuke","family":"Sato","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erina","family":"Nagai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hiroyuki","family":"Hazama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yusuke","family":"Taki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michiro","family":"Takahashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yusuke","family":"Kyoden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masaya","family":"Watanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ko","family":"Ohata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hideyuki","family":"Kanemoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Noriyuki","family":"Oba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masakazu","family":"Takagi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery Shizuoka General Hospital  Shizuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SLA.0b013e3182590603"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-013-2238-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3468(87)80585-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","volume-title":"TNM classification of malignant tumors","author":"Sobin L","year":"2009"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","first-page":"2095","article-title":"A case of esophageal cancer with a funnel chest","volume":"40","author":"Takemura M","year":"2013","journal-title":"Gan To Kagaku Ryoho"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00464-010-1072-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9610(61)90268-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3468(98)90314-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11748-009-0521-2"}],"container-title":["Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fases.12195","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/ases.12195","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,2]],"date-time":"2023-10-02T21:01:40Z","timestamp":1696280500000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/ases.12195"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015,8]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2015,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/ases.12195"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/ases.12195","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1758-5902","1758-5910"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1758-5902","type":"print"},{"value":"1758-5910","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015,8]]}}}
