ABSTRACT: We aimed to report patients' survival after surgical resection of eSCC and to ascertain the clinical, imaging, and pathological factors related to patient prognosis. This retrospective study included 435 patients with eSCC of max) on positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) of the primary tumor was significantly correlated with tumor length, nodal metastasis, and pathologic T stage in a positive linear fashion. In the multivariate analysis, higher SUV_max on PET/CT was a negative prognostic factor for both disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Contrar
