    AbstractPathological assessment of frozen sections of tissues is important in the clinical management (intraoperative consultation) and research in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Frozen sections may be used in the assessment of status of resection margins, extent of cancer metastasis (pathological staging), confirmation of the pathology, and increased volume of cancer cells for tissue banking. However, the applications of frozen sections have many technical limitations. Thus, interpretation of frozen sections needs expertise, collaborations, and attention to proper technical skills in the sectioning.
