| Core Tip |
Esophageal cancer is a disease with a non-negligible impact, being the 6th leading cause of death from cancer, and with a very high morbidity and mortality due to diagnosed in advanced stages. A better understanding of the epidemiology, the natural history, and the risk factors could lead to an earlier diagnosis and treatment by endoscopic methods or by other less aggressive techniques. As a result, we could improve treatment outcomes, even though less aggressive modalities. This article provides a global perspective by comparing the management of esophageal cancer in Western and Eastern countries with particular emphasis on current prevention strategies. |
