Transmediastinal esophagectomy significantly reduces operative time and blood loss compared to McKeown.
Patients undergoing transmediastinal esophagectomy experience earlier oral intake and shorter hospital stays.
Complication rates are lower for transmediastinal esophagectomy, particularly for pneumonia and nerve injuries.
Quality-of-life scores post-surgery are better in the transmediastinal group, with similar disease-free survival rates.
