What are the criteria for full response to neoadjuvant treatment for oesophagus cancer? surgery or follow-up?

Abstract

Esophageal cancer is a progressive disease. Its survival rate is low compared to other tumors. The treatment strategy affects the survival of the patient. Treatment is controversial, especially in patients with complete response after neoadjuvant therapy. In our study, we investigated the criteria for complete response after neoadjuvant therapy and subsequent treatment processes.
