De novo esophageal malignancy following liver transplantation is very rare. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma following liver transplant is closely associated with history of alcohol intake and tobacco chewing. We report on a 45-year-old man, chronic tobacco chewer and alcoholic who underwent liver transplantation for alcoholic cirrhosis and developed esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 23 mont...

â  â  background esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (escc) is usually detected in advanced stages resulting in a very poor prognosis. early diagnoâ­sis needs identification of clinically relevant precancerous lesions which could become the target of screening and early treatment. our aim was to check whether esophagitis could serve as a relevant histological precursor of escc in northern iran. ...

Esophageal adenocarcinoma rates may be increasing, whereas, squamous cell carcinoma rates appear to be decreasing in the United States. Previous population-based research on esophageal cancer has only covered up to 68% of the country. Additional, updated research on a larger percentage of the country is needed to describe racial, ethnic and regional trends in histologic subtypes of esophageal c...

in this study esophageal resection and radiotherapy methods were compared in relation to the patients suffering from esophageal cancer. three hundred and fifty-four patients with squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus who had been hospitalized in the cancer institute of the imam khomeini hospital, tehran, during 1981-1985 were followed up through march 21st, 1987. based on the findings, patients ...

Esophageal cancer is a lethal disease with poor survival rate. It is necessary to determine the extension, and the stage of the tumor to predict the outcome of patients. Of the two common pathologic types, squamous cell carcinoma is still the most common form, and adenocarcinoma is the leading one. Early diagnosis and radical treatment of esophageal cancer, regardless of tumor spreading, increa...

background and aims. several diagnostic methods are being employed to detect benign and malignant lesions, one of which is silver nitrate staining for organizer regions. the number of nucleolar organizing regions (nors) can be used to show the degree of cell activity or metabolism in pathologic lesions. this study was designed to evaluate nors as determinants of precancerous and squamous cell c...

conclusions based on evidence, dentists and dental health care professionals should consider periodontal disease as a risk factor for the development of neoplasms in the oral cavity. it also seems a good idea to provide periodontal therapy for patients with cancer to achieve ideal therapeutic results. results cancer of the oral cavity and periodontal disease are related from different aspects. ...

M2 macrophages was domesticated by tumor microenvironment to produce some angiogenic molecules and protease, facilitating angiogenesis and matrix breakdown, promoting tumor invasive and metastasis. However, The function of M2 macrophages to progression of eophageal carcinoma, especially Kazakh esophageal carcinoma is still dimness. This study aims to investigate M2 macrophages correlated with m...

Esophageal carcinoma is among the most common cancers worldwide and a leading cause of cancer death [1]. Large numbers of studies indicated that chronic inflammation is closely associated with its development [21, 25]. Furthermore, the JAK/STAT pathway, which plays a critical role in inflammation and immunity, has been implied in a number of malignancies [11]. It has been shown that targeting t...

To clarify the expression level and methylation of esophageal cancer related gene 4 in laryngeal malignant tumor adjacent tissues, to explore its potential correlation with clinicopathological characteristics patients is objective study. The clinical samples were collected from 20 primary Xiangtan Central Hospital December 2017 2018. detected by next-generation sequencing technology. In 15 case...
