BACKGROUND The standard of care of patients with cancer of cardia and esophagus still remains surgery in early stage. One of the most feared complications after such procedure is anastomotic leak. AIM We present our experience with omental wrapping of anastomosis (omentoplasty) to decrease the anastomotic leak. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Retrospective study. MATERIALS AND METHODS An analysis of ...
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 ...
Alcohol consumption is a risk factor for esophageal cancer. Acetaldehyde, a highly toxic intermediate produced from ethanol, is converted to acetic acid mainly by aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) in the metabolic pathway of ethanol. Fifty percent of Japanese have inactive ALDH2 due to genetic polymorphism, which is considered to be a risk factor associated with esophageal cancer. In our previou...
The risk of developing esophageal cancer in Barrett's esophagus has been estimated at about 10%. This estimate is based primarily on data concerning the prevalence of that association in series of hospitalized patients and autopsies--a practice that tends to exaggerate the risk. We have reviewed retrospectively our experience with 115 patients whom we treated for Barrett's esophagus between Sep...
A 72-year-old man with pancreatic cancer presented coffee-ground emesis for 2 days. Computed tomography of abdomen oral contrast showed gastric distention, transition point at level the bulb and large volume ascites. Endoscopy severe diffuse exudative esophagitis involving most esophagus areas black discoloration mid distal edematous (Figures B). infiltrating mass, consistent known cancer, was ...
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...
Purpose: Esophageal adenocarcinoma is a highly aggressive malignancy that frequently develops from Barrett's esophagus, a premalignant pathologic change occurring in the lower end of the esophagus. Identifying Barrett's esophagus patients at high risk of malignant transformation is essential to the prevention of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Although microRNA (miRNA) expression signatures have bee...
Giant pedunculated liposarcoma of the esophagus is considered a rare entity. They impose difficulties in management, especially the surgical approach. We report a case of giant pedunculated liposarcoma of the esophagus in a 62-year-old male who underwent cervical excision of this large tumor, and made a full recovery. Hurthle cell thyroid cancer was found during the work-up, which was managed a...
BACKGROUND There is convincing evidence that alcohol consumption increases the risk of cancer of the colorectum, breast, larynx, liver, esophagus, oral cavity and pharynx. Most of the data derive from studies that focused on the effect of moderate/high alcohol intakes, while little is known about light alcohol drinking (up to 1 drink/day). PATIENTS AND METHODS We evaluated the association bet...
