Nonsurgical Management of Esophageal Cancer
In the recent past, the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinomas has risen dramatically, whereas the incidence of squamous cell carcinomas has remained relatively steady in the United States (Holmes & Vaughan, 2007). Esophageal adenocarcinoma arises from Barrett’s esophagus with an estimated incidence rate of 0.4-0.7 per 100-patients/year. (Sharma et al., 2004; Thomas et al., 2007). Barrett’s es...

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...
متن کاملAsymptomatic Diaphragmatic Hernia Diagnosed after Six Years Following Esophagectomy: A Case Report
Diaphragmatic hernia, secondary to transhiatal esophagectomy, appears to be a relatively infrequent diagnosis. Patients may be asymptomatic or present with various symptoms. Diagnosis of this condition requires a high index of suspicion. The most common cause of diaphragmatic hernia is widened esophageal hiatus during surgery; therefore, narrowing the hiatus can prevent conduit herniation. Here...
متن کاملEndoscopic methods in the treatment of early-stage esophageal cancer
Most patients with early esophageal cancer restricted to the mucosa may be offered endoscopic therapy, which is similarly effective, less invasive and less expensive than esophagectomy. Selection of appropriate relevant treatment and therapy methods should be performed at a specialized center with adequate facilities. The selection of an endoscopic treatment method for high-grade dysplasia and ...

Background and purpose: A gastric conduit is usually used to reconstruct the foregut after esophagectomy for cancer. The gastric emptying may be impaired after this operation, so some esophageal surgeons routinely add a pyloric drainage procedure. The aim of this study was to determine the emptying of the intrathoracic stomach after esophagectomy and cervical esophagogastrostomy with or witho...
