Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Metachronous multiple squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the esophagus and the head and neck is commonly observed in patients who have previously undergone endoscopic resection (ER) for SCC of the esophagus (ESCC). We evaluated the risk for developing metachronous SCC following ER for ESCC based on the genetic polymorphisms for alcohol dehydrogenase-1B (ADH1B) and aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) as...
