Over the past years advanced surgical techniques for minimally-invasive gastric and esophageal surgery were developed. New surgical strategies and technological innovations brought the upper-GI cancer surgery to the highest level. In Mainz the fully minimally-invasive esophageal surgery is the standard procedure beside robotic procedures as well as minimally-invasive gastric cancer surgery.
In this Masterclass Workshop we showed essential technical steps in minimally-invasive upper GI surgery.
