Combination of gastric atrophy, reflux symptoms and histological subtype indicates two distinct aetiologies of gastric cardia cancer.
INTRODUCTION Atrophic gastritis is a risk factor for non-cardia gastric cancer, and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) for oesophageal adenocarcinoma. The role of atrophic gastritis and GORD in the aetiology of adenocarcinoma of the cardia remains unclear. We have investigated the association between adenocarcinoma of the different regions of the upper gastrointestinal tract and atrophic ...
متن کاملIntestinal metaplasia at the squamocolumnar junction in patients attending for diagnostic gastroscopy.
BACKGROUND The incidence of adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus and gastric cardia is increasing rapidly. Barrett's oesophagus is the major risk factor. Intestinal metaplasia at the squamocolumnar junction in the absence of Barrett's oesophagus is common but its relation to adenocarcinoma and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease is unclear. AIMS To study the prevalence and clinical, endoscopic, and...
متن کاملIndividualised surgical treatment of patients with an adenocarcinoma of the distal oesophagus or gastro-oesophageal junction.
In this review we discuss the different strategies to improve surgical outcomes after potentially curative resection for oesophageal adenocarcinoma. For tumours of the distal oesophagus, there is a 17% survival benefit after transthoracic resection with two-field lymph node dissection when compared with transhiatal resection. This survival benefit is absent for tumours of the gastro-oesophageal...
متن کاملAdenocarcinomas of the distal esophagus and "gastric cardia" are predominantly esophageal carcinomas.
BACKGROUND Adenocarcinoma of the distal esophagus and gastric cardia are defined by the relationship of its epicenter to the gastro-esophageal junction, which is presently defined as the end of the tubular esophagus. We have recently suggested that the true gastro-esophageal junction is best defined by the proximal limit of gastric oxyntic mucosa. AIM To reclassify adenocarcinomas of this reg...
متن کاملEmerging aspects of oesophageal and gastro-oesophageal junction cancer histopathology – an update for the surgical oncologist
Adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus and gastro-oesophageal junction are rapidly increasing in incidence and have a well described sequence of carcinogenesis: the Barrett's metaplasia-dysplasia-adenocarcinoma sequence. During recent years there have been changes in the knowledge surrounding disease progression, cancer management and histopathology specimen reporting. Tumours around the gastro-oesop...
