Title Of Article :
Pathology of esophageal carcinomas
Abstract :
Esophageal carcinomas can usually be detected in locally advanced stages, due to asymptomatic course and the anatomic properties of esophagus which facilitate rapid spread. Despite improvements on the diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, these patients show very poor survival rates. Detection of these patiens on the premalignant disease stage and determining the appropriate follow-up and therapy approaches require good correlation of the pathologist and the clinician. Here, esophageal carcinomas and their premalignant diseases will be reviewed with histopathological and genetical properties and current information required for follow up and treatment procedures are going to be presented.
