Abstract

The present study aimed to compare the clinical value of multi-band mucosectomy (MBM) versus endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for the treatment of patients with early‑stage esophageal cancer. Between January 2011 and December 2012, 68 patients with early‑stage esophageal cancer who underwent MBM and EMR were enrolled into the present study. The curative resection rate, duration of surgery, complications and follow‑up records were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 68 patients included, 33 were treated with MBM and 35 with EMR. There was no significant difference in the rate of complete resection between the MBM and EMR groups (P>0.05). The mean duration of surgery in the MBM group was statistically lower than that in the EMR group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the intraoperative and post‑operative complications between the MBM and EMR groups (P>0.05). Esophageal cancer reoccurred in 2 patients treated with MBM and 1 patient treated with EMR during the follow‑up period (range, 3‑24 months). Overall, MBM can be considered a better surgical option for the management of patients with early‑stage esophageal cancer, as it offers higher histological curative resection rates and improved safety. However, further studies and a larger follow‑up period are required to confirm the long-term curative effect.
