摘要: Esophageal and gastric cancers are both common deadly. Patients present most often after disease progression survival is therefore poor. Due to demographic variability recent changes in incidence, much emphasis has been placed on studying risk factors for esophageal cancers. However, with increasing understanding of these diseases, low rates persist continued intensive studies necessary optimize treatment plans. This review article discusses updates the evolving epidemiology, clinical presentation, factors, diagnostic modalities
