Case of metastatic breast cancer from esophageal cancer.

abstract：:Surgically induced duodenal reflux results in cancer development in the rat esophagus. One proposed mechanism of carcinogenesis relies on the production of carcinogens in the presence of bacterial overgrowth. Against this background, intestinal microflora in the rat jejunum was analyzed before and after reflux-inducin...
