Esophageal cancer represents the fourth most common gastrointestinal cancer and generally confers a poor prognosis. Prostaglandin-producing cyclo-oxygenase has been implicated in the pathogenesis of esophageal cancer growth. Here we report that prostaglandin dehydrogenase, the major enzyme responsible for prostaglandin degradation, is significantly reduced in expression in esophageal cancer in ...
BACKGROUND We present the first description of en bloc endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for total circumferential Barrett's adenocarcinoma, predominantly of the long-segment Barrett's esophagus (LSBE), with a 2-year follow-up and management strategies for esophageal stricture prevention. CASE PRESENTATION A 59-year-old man was diagnosed with LSBE and Barrett's adenocarcinoma by esophago...
HEADINGS Esophageal neoplasms. Neoplasms, squamous cell. Adenocarcinoma. Esophagectomy. ABSTRACT Background Medical literature has recorded a significant and progressive increase in the prevalence of esophageal adenocarcinoma in recent years, and this fact has epidemiological importance in the treatment, in the evolution and prognosis of patients. Aim A retrospective study of esophageal tumors ...
Alpha-fetoprotein is a well-known tumor marker in the screening and follow-up of hepatocellular carcinoma. In Taiwanese society, a high prevalence of hepatitis and hepatoma and elevation of alpha-fetoprotein associated with liver function impairment usually suggested clinics undertake further examination for liver or genital tumor. We report the case of 45-year-old man who was found to have an ...
A case of collision carcinoma (squamous cell carcinoma and Barrett's adenocarcinoma) in the residual cervical esophagus of a 68-year-old woman at 27 years after subtotal esophagectomy for thoracic esophageal carcinoma is reported. The patient initially noticed cervical dysphagia in 2002, but did not seek treatment. In April 2004, the patient was referred to our department by a local physician w...
BACKGROUND Gastric and esophageal cancers are among the most lethal human malignancies worldwide. Of all malignancies estimated in Iran (47,100), gastric and esophageal cancers were responsible for 7,800 and 3,500 deaths in 2008 respectively. The present study aimed to provide an image of patho-epidemiological characteristics with their trends during two past decades with emphasis on topographi...
BACKGROUND Little is known about the possible influence of demographic and histological risk factors on the survival of patients with esophageal and gastric cancer. OBJECTIVES Based on the available registry and follow-up information, this study compares 1-5 year survival rate of gastric and esophageal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Through a concurrent (prospective) cohort study, all 366 pat...
BACKGROUND Accurate population-based data are needed on the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma and high-grade dysplasia among patients with Barrett's esophagus. METHODS We conducted a nationwide, population-based, cohort study involving all patients with Barrett's esophagus in Denmark during the period from 1992 through 2009, using data from the Danish Pathology Registry and the Danish Ca...
BACKGROUND Previous studies that showed an association between smoking and adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and esophagogastric junction were limited in their ability to assess differences by tumor site, sex, dose-response, and duration of cigarette smoking cessation. METHODS We used primary data from 10 population-based case-control studies and two cohort studies from the Barrett's Esophagus...
