Neoadjuvant immunotherapy for resectable esophageal cancer: A protocol of meta-analysis.

<h4>Background</h4>Esophageal cancer is a highly malignant cancer with a very poor prognosis. For resectable esophageal cancer, neoadjuvant treatment could improve the prognosis of esophageal cancer. However, current clinical neoadjuvant treatment options for esophageal cancer are still...
