1 Evolving management and outcome of esophageal cancer with airway involvement 
E.Pendleton Alexander, MD, Gregory D Trachiotis, MD, Timothy O Lipman, MD, Robert G Wadleigh, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 71, Issue 5, Pages (May 2001) DOI: /S (00) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Actuarial survival for all patients in the entire study group: group I (1985 to 1991) and group II (1992 to 1998). The difference between group I and group II was significant (p = ).

3 Fig 2 Actuarial survival for patients with an esophagorespiratory fistula in the entire study group: group I (1985 to 1991) and group II (1992 to 1998). The difference between group I and group II approached statistical significance (p = 0.058).

4 Fig 3 The impact of N0M0 stage grouping on survival for both the total group and group II. In each group the difference was highly significant (p = ). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (00) ) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

5 Fig 4 Actuarial survival of patients receiving plastic and metallic stents. There was no significant difference though long-term survival was observed with a metallic stent. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (00) ) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

6 Fig 5 Actuarial survival of resection, nonresection, and all patients in group II. Survival in resected patients is significantly superior to nonresected (p = 0.01). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (00) ) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
