Abstract
The impact of HIV/AIDS on the treatment of oesophageal neoplasms remains undefined due to a lack of adequate data. We present our experience in treating patients with HIV/AIDS who have oesophageal cancer using minimally invasive techniques and discuss important key factors during perioperative management. Two men with HIV/AIDS underwent minimally invasive oesophagectomies in our department, with adequate clinical and oncological outcomes. Minimally invasive oesophagectomy can be safe and has the well-established benefits of minimally invasive techniques, offering good perioperative results and oncological outcomes in patients with HIV/AIDS. Multimodality therapy is crucial.Entities:
