Core Tip Cancer of the gastro-oesophageal junction is an increasingly common phenomenon. For patients with operable junctional cancer, the only curative treatment option is surgery, however the optimal peri-operative treatment is controversial. We review the evidence supporting the use of chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy in the pre- and postoperative settings for these patients, and go on to highlight how current research into the molecular mechanisms underpinning gastro-oesophageal cancer may lead to future effective treatment options.
