SummaryHorgan et al. described the first robotic-assisted transhiatal esophagectomy in 2003. Although there is debate regarding the oncologic appropriateness of transhiatal versus thoracic approach to esophagectomy in malignancy, comparative data are still lacking. This paper with video describes step by step how and when to perform a transhiatal robotic-assisted resection in patients with esophageal cancer.
