Hybrid minimally invasive esophagectomy - Combining both open and minimal access to bridge the learning curve

Abstract
The rise of minimally invasive surgery since the past decade has seen the trend of management of surgical condition towards more minimally invasive approach. The favor on the side of minimally invasive procedures is obvious with the potential benefits of lesser post-operative pain, reduced length of stay and wound complications. However, in procedures such as esophagectomy, gastrectomy and Whipple��?s procedure which is technically more demanding when performed via the minimally invasive approach, we have not seen a great rise in numbers. Multiple recent clinical studies have shown the benefits in minimally invasive esophagectomy and the oncological outcomes are not compromised. As there is a learning curve to this procedure, we proposed a hybrid approach to reduce the operative time for surgeons embarking on this approach.Biography
