Article Outline

 

In the article, “Outcomes of T1b esophageal adenocarcinoma patients,” by Tian et al., which appeared in the December 2011 issue of GIE (Gastronintest Endosc 2011;74:1201-6), there was an error in the Abstract and in the list of abbreviations. The correct version of each follows.

Conclusion: Among the patients with T1b EAC found in EMR specimens who uderwent esophagectomy, one third had regional LNM. In our small series, patients who underwent esophagectomy did not have a significantly different survival duration from that of those who did not, indicating that these patients may have similar outcomes.

Abbreviations: T1b EAC, submucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma; LNM, lymph node metastasis; PET, positron emission tomography.
