Abstract
Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is frequently found on the right-anterior wall of the distal esophagus in short-segment Barrett's esophagus (SSBE) patients. However, the endoscopic characteristics of EAC in cases with long-segment BE (LSBE) and squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in the lower esophagus remain to be fully evaluated. Here, we determined the circumferential distribution and clinical characteristics of esophageal cancer occurring in the lower esophagus based on histological subtype. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 150 patients with esophageal cancer (ESCC, n = 100; EAC, n = 50) diagnosed at our hospital or a related facility between January 2002 and June 2017, including information regarding endoscopic findings, etiology, and clinical parameters. Of the 100 patients with ESCC, 28 lesions were located in the lower esophagus, though characteristic circumferential distribution was not seen regardless of location. Those showed a greater frequency of smoking and drinking habit and gastric mucosal atrophy as compared to patients with EAC. Consistent with the previous reports, EAC in SSBE (n = 41) was frequently located on the right-anterior wall. Likewise, EAC at the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) in LSBE w...Continue Reading
