Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of treatment for esophageal carcinoma. Mediastinal lymphadenectomy including subcarinal nodes has always been considered to be a reasonable extent, because of close anatomical relationship between subcarinal nodes and tracheobronchial tree. Metastatic involvement of subcarinal nodes alone is rare in esophageal carcinoma. In view of special anatomical features of subcarinal lymph nodes, it is worth exploring and discussing whether or not subcarinal lymph nodes dissection shall be routinely performed for thoracic esophageal carcinoma.
