| Abstract | Background Venous invasion (VI) is an adverse prognostic indicator in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. However, grading criteria for venous invasion in thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have not been established. Methods We enrolled 598 thoracic ESCC patients from 2005 to 2017. We detected the presence of venous invasion using the hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-staining method and evaluated the VI grade on the basis of the number and maximal size of the involved veins. The degree of VI was classified as either 0, V1, V2, or V3, according to the combination of V-number and V-size. Results The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year disease-free survival rates were 79.7%, 64.7% and 61.2%, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that lymphatic invasion (HR: 1.457, 95% CI: 1.058–2.006, p = 0.021), T category (HR: 1.457, 95% CI: 1.058–2.006, p = 0.022), N category (HR: 1.535, 95% CI: 1.276–2.846, p < 0.001), stage (HR: 1.563, 95% CI: 1.235–1.976, p < 0.001) and the degree of venous invasion (HR: 1.526, 95% CI: 1.279–2.822, p < 0.001) were significant indicators of recurrence. The disease-free survival curves were distinguished especially well by the degree of venous invasion in stage III and IV patients. Conclusions The present study explored an objective grading criterion for VI and proved the prognostic value of the degree of venous invasion in ESCC. The classification of venous invasion into 4 groups is useful for the differentiation of prognosis in ESCC patients. The prognostic significance of the degree of VI in advanced ESCC patients for recurrence may have to be considered. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
