Research
Mayo Clinic researchers are working to improve treatment with esophagectomy. Studies cover a wide range of areas, including:
- Less-invasive laparoscopic techniques.
- The complications of esophagectomy generally and specifically for people who had previous anti-reflux surgery.
- The role of endoscopic methods in treating Barrett esophagus with high-grade dysplasia to avoid esophagectomy.
Key research is now also focused on managing your symptoms after esophagectomy and helping you to achieve the best outcome possible as you continue with your life.
