In recent years, positron emission tomography using the positron emitting glucose analogue 18F- fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-PET) has emerged as a particularly useful adjunct to anatomical imaging modalities as computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS). In the initial staging of EC the additional value of FDG-PET is its ability to identify distant metastases (stage IV disease), excluding patients from unnecessary surgery.

Respiratory problems remain the major cause of both mortality and morbidity after esophagectomy for cancer. A specific pulmonary disorder, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) occurs in 10-20% of patients after esophagectomy. ARDS mortality exceeds 50%. Atrial fibrillation, that complicates recovery in 20 to 25% of patients after esophagectomy, contributes to make outcome worse.
