Comparative genomic hybridization of cancer of the gastroesophageal junction: deletion of 14Q31-32.1 discriminates between esophageal (Barrett's) and gastric cardia adenocarcinomas [PDF]
Incidence rates have risen rapidly for esophageal and gastric cardia adenocarcinomas. These cancers, arising at and around the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ), share a poor prognosis.

Total esophagogastrectomy in the neoplasms of the esophagus and esofagogastric junction: when must be indicated? [PDF]
to analyse the indications and results of the total esophagogastrectomy in cancers of the distal esophagus and esophagogastric junction. twenty patients with adenocarcinomas were operated with a mean age of 55 ± 9.9 years (31-70 years), and 14 cases were

Large mid-esophageal granular cell tumor: benign versus malignant
Granular cell tumors are rare soft tissue neoplasms, among which only 2% are malignant, arising from nervous tissue. Here we present a case of a large esophageal granular cell tumor with benign histopathological features which metastasized to the liver ...

Management of esophageal stricture after complete circular endoscopic submucosal dissection for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
Background Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) permits removal of esophageal epithelial neoplasms en bloc, but is associated with esophageal stenosis, particularly when ESD involves the entire circumference of the esophageal lumen.

A Case of Esophageal Intramural Pseudodiverticulosis
Esophageal intramural pseudodiverticulosis (EIP) is a rare benign disease that is characterized by multiple tiny flaskshaped outpouching lesions of the esophageal wall. The etiology is unknown, but the pathologic fi ndings include dilatation of excretory
