Epidemiologic differences in esophageal cancer between Asian and Western populations.

Chinese journal of cancer - 1 Jun 2012

Zhang Han-Ze, Jin Guang-Fu, Shen Hong-Bing

Abstract excerpt

Esophageal cancer is a common cancer worldwide and has a poor prognosis. The incidence of esophageal squamous cell cancer has been decreasing, whereas the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma has been increasing rapidly, particularly in Western men. Squamous cell cancer continues to be the major type of esophageal cancer in Asia, and the main risk factors include tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, hot...
