Histologic subtypes as determinants of outcome in esophageal carcinoma patients with pathologic complete response after preoperative chemoradiotherapy.

abstract：:A previously unreported high incidence of endoscopically identifiable, diffuse, largely nonulcerative esophagitis, is described in a selected population of Southern African blacks at risk of cancer of the esophagus. This is comparable with findings in similar groups in Iran and China. The incidence of dysplasia and "e...
