Esophageal Cancer
Abstract
Cancers arising from the esophagus, including the gastroesophageal junction, are relatively uncommon in the United States — the lifetime risk of this cancer is 0.8 percent for men and 0.3 percent for women, and it increases with age. The presentation is insidious; at diagnosis, more than 50 percent of patients have either unresectable cancer or radiographically visible metastases, rendering management problematic. This review discusses the pathogenesis of esophageal cancer, as well as the clinical presentation, treatment, and prognosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
