so common?

Diagnosis
Clinical presentation
Dysphagia (75%)
Weight loss (57%)
Odynophagia (17%)
Hoarseness due to recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy
Respiratory symptoms due to esophagotracheal fistules
Bleeding
Heartburn/history of GERD (Barrett`s carcinoma)
History of smoking/alcohol intake
Primary diagnostic tools
Oesophago-gastroduodenoscopy + biopsy
Barium oesophagography
Bronchoscopy (for mid-oesophageal tumours)
Staging
Endoscopic ultrasound (accuracy of overall staging 72%, nodal staging with FNAB 90%)
CT scan of the chest and abdomen
PET-CT (initial and to determine the response to therapy) – of prognostic value?
Minimal invasive staging (laparoscopy/thoracoscopy)

Classification of adenocarcinomas in the EGJ
Siewert 1996/2000
Localization of tumour center
Type I: within 1 to 5 cm above EGJ
Type II: within 1 cm above and 2 cm below EGJ
Type III: between 2 to 5 cm below EGJ
Clinical relevance?
Lymphatic spread: Type I (6%) vs type II (22%) and type III (38%)
Grading: better in type I tumours vs type II/III
Histology: 80% of type I cancers have intestinal type tumour growing pattern, type II/III more agressive
Type II/III tumourbiological characteristics of gastric cancer (therapeutic consequences)
Surgery: type I transthoracal, type II/III transhiatal

Therapy
Crucial factors of therapy planning:
Tumour stage
Histological type
Patient`s performance status
Major staging groups:
Early cancer (Tis, T1a N0)
Limited disease (T1-2 N0-1 M0)
Locally advanced disease (T3-4 N0-1 M0)
Advanced (Tx Nx M1)/recurrent disease
Oesophageal carcinoma
Endoscopic resection
Surgery + perioperative RTx/CTx
Palliative treatment

Universitätsklinik für Viszerale Chirurgie und Medizin
Early cancer - Endoscopic therapy modalities
1. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)
2. Endoscopic ablation procedures (RFA, cryoablation, photodynamic therapy)
Endoscopic resection/ablation vs. esophagectomy:
Similar median cancer-free survival
Less morbidity
Precondition:
EUS staging is essential (nodularity, lateral spread)
Tumour<2cm, G1-2, w/o invasion beyond mucosa and ulceration
Limitations of endoscopic therapy:
-
angiolymphatic invasion irrespective of tumour depth
nodal metastases (7% of T1 tumours)
positive resection margins in 1/3 of cases
recurrent/metachronous lesions in 11% of patients

Surgery
Esophagogastrectomy
1. Transthoracic (right thoracotomy+laparotomy±cervical anastomosis) less anastomatic leakage rate
2. Transhiatal (laparotomy+cervical anastomosis)
less postoperative morbidity
3. Thoracoabdominal
4. Minimal invasive esophagectomy (laparoscopy/thoracoscopy) shorter hospitalisation,
less postop morbidity/mortality, less pulmonary complications, preserves QOL
with systematic lymph-node dissection
Preconditions for surgical therapy:
Tumour is resectable
Patient is fit
Is surgery alone feasible?
No, combined modality therapy is necessary

Radiation therapy
Definitive: 50 (-60) Gy (for tumours of cervical oesophagus 60-65 Gy)
Preoperative: 40-50 Gy
Postoperative 45-50 Gy
Palliative: individual
brachytherapy (local control rate 25-35%)
Squamous cell carcinoma - more radiosensitive
Preoperative radiation versus surgery alone
–  no improved survival in long-term randomized trials
Post-op radiation versus surgery alone
–  no improved survival, but higher stricture rate
–  improved local recurrence rates in node negative
mid- to upper-third SCCs
–  benefit if positive margins/residual tumours
Radiotherapy as part of the multimodal therapy with CTx
for cancer in the cervical esophagus (no surgery possible)
as single therapy for palliation/rescue only

Treatment of advanced (metastatic, disseminated) disease
Palliative chemotherapy
SCC:
cisplatin+5-FU
Adenocc: cisplatin+irinotecan
cisplatin+5FU+docetaxel
epirubicin+oxaliplatin+capecitabine (±panitimumab)
Management of pain
Improvement of dysphagia
Endoscopy: esophageal stents (also for trecheo-esophageal fistules)
brachytherapy (better long-term effects?)
photodynamic therapy (for bleeding, better acute tumour response)
YAG-laser therapy (for bleeding, more perforations)
Adequate nutrition
enteral(PEG tube)/parenteral nutrition

Prevention
Smoking cessation (risk of SCC decreases after one decade)
Moderation of alcohol intake
Substitution fresh fruits and vegetables for high-salt/ nitrosamine-preserved food
Aspirin, selenium, black raspberries
No screening for patients with long-term GERD for Barrett`s
- high number of people having reflux symptoms
- 40% of patients with Barrett`s without reflux symptoms
Surveillance for patients with Barrett`s is essential. Why?
100x risk of esophagus cancer vs. general population
LGD: 3-4%
HGD: 0.5-1%
Cancer: 0.3-0.5%
of patients with Barrett`s esophagus/yr
