This makes accurate pre-treatment staging and classification of the tumors most demanding. A well-established and internationally accepted classification for adenocarcinomas of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) helps to choose the appropriate surgical approach and to make results from different institutions comparable. Distal esophageal adenocarcinomas (AEGⅠ) are distinguished from true cardia carcinomas (AEGⅡ) and subcardiac gastric cancers (AEGⅢ). Substantial advancements in this surgical field during the preceding decades have clearly revealed that individualization of the surgical strategy is the key to successfully approaching these entities. In this review we discuss the surgical management of esophagogastric junction tumors with a tailored surgical strategy.展开更多

Barrett's esophagus(BE) associated with dysplasia is the main risk factor for the development of cancer. Currently, screening programs to individuate and eradicate BE represent the best way to reduce AEG cancer. Several endoscopic approaches are here discussed. Surgicalstrategies for different types of AEG cancer are now fairly standardized, and multidisciplinary strategies u s i n g c h e m o t h e ra py o r c h e m o ra d i o t h e ra py m ay improve the outcome of these patients. Here we briefly discuss the keypoints, main topics, and critical issues, according to accumulating evidence and taking into account our own experience.展开更多
