[Increased incidence of adenocarcinomas in the esophagus and cardia--effect of epidemiologic data on developments in surgery]
Abstract
Results of this study show an increasing incidence of adenocarcinoma in the esophagus and cardia. The reasons of this rise are speculative. Adequate diagnostic and therapeutic strategies must be evaluated; these can only be performed in specialist centers.
