Severe scoliosis is associated with respiratory dysfunction, impaired operative tolerance, and anatomical difficulty in surgical manipulation, and is, therefore, considered a high surgical risk. In this report, we describe the case of a young patient with Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma with severe scoliosis who underwent salvage surgery after radical chemoradiotherapy.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The patient was a 39-year-old male. Although he had severe scoliosis and paraplegia of both lower limbs since childhood, he was independent in activities of daily living. His previous doctor, who diagnosed the esophageal cancer, determined that surgery was not indicated due to the coexistence of severe scoliosis, so he underwent chemoradiotherapy with curative intent. After chemoradiotherapy, the patient was referred to our hospital for a second opinion because of a tumor remnant. After various additional examinations, thoracoscopic and laparoscopic subtotal esophagectomy for esophageal cancer was performed, along with ante-thoracic route reconstruction using a narrow gastric tube. Although the patient had symptoms associated with postoperative reflux, he recovered well overall and was discharged home about 4 weeks after surgery.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We report the case of an esophageal cancer patient with severe scoliosis at high surgical risk who underwent successful minimally invasive esophagectomy.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40792-023-01776-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,24]],"date-time":"2023-11-24T15:02:10Z","timestamp":1700838130000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A case of Barrett\u2019s esophageal adenocarcinoma and severe scoliosis with successful salvage esophagectomy after definitive chemoradiotherapy"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Daisuke","family":"Taguchi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9538-5705","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kotaro","family":"Yamashita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kota","family":"Momose","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Koji","family":"Tanaka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tomoki","family":"Makino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Takuro","family":"Saito","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kazuyoshi","family":"Yamamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tsuyoshi","family":"Takahashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yukinori","family":"Kurokawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiyokazu","family":"Nakajima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hidetoshi","family":"Eguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuichiro","family":"Doki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"1776_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"E480","DOI":"10.1097\/BSD.0000000000000263","volume":"30","author":"NHK Watanabe","year":"2017","unstructured":"Watanabe NHK, Yagi M, Kaneko S, Toyama Y, Matsumoto M.
