Stomach and Esophagus Cancer
Expert Care by Dr. Divyesh Pathak
Stomach (gastric) and esophagus cancers are serious and often aggressive cancers affecting the digestive tract. These cancers require a highly specialized approach to treatment. At Adwaita Cancer Hospital, ICU & Research Center, Dr. Divyesh Pathak leads a team of expert oncologists dedicated to providing personalized and advanced treatment options for patients with stomach and esophagus cancer, with a focus on comprehensive care and better outcomes.
Types of Stomach and Esophagus Cancer:
- Adenocarcinoma of the Stomach:
- The most common type of stomach cancer, originating from the cells lining the stomach.
- Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer:
- Cancer that develops where the stomach meets the esophagus. It often shares characteristics with both stomach and esophagus cancers.
- Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Esophagus:
- Arises from the flat cells lining the esophagus, often related to smoking or alcohol consumption.
- Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagus:
- Originates from the glandular cells in the lower part of the esophagus, often linked to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Barrett’s esophagus.
- Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST):
- A rare type of tumor that can occur in the stomach or esophagus, originating from specialized cells in the gastrointestinal tract.
Signs & Symptoms of Stomach and Esophagus Cancer:
- Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
- Persistent heartburn or indigestion
- Unexplained weight loss
- Nausea and vomiting, especially after eating
- Pain or discomfort in the upper abdomen or chest
- Fatigue and loss of appetite
Laparoscopic Surgeries for GI & URO Cancers
Laparoscopic surgeries for gastrointestinal (GI) and urological (URO) cancers are minimally invasive techniques used to treat various types of cancer in the digestive and urinary systems.
Types of GI Cancers Treated with Laparoscopic Surgery
- Colorectal Cancer
- Stomach Cancer (Gastric Cancer)
- Esophageal Cancer
Advantages of Laparoscopic Surgery
- Minimally Invasive:Involves small incisions, which lead to quicker recovery times, less postoperative pain, and minimal scarring.
- Precision: Surgeons use specialized instruments and a camera to view the internal organs, which provides enhanced view.
- Reduced Hospital Stay: Patients often experience shorter hospital stays, which means quicker return to daily activities.
- Lower Risk of Infection: Smaller incisions and less exposure of internal tissues result in a lower risk of post-surgical infections.
Diagnosis of Stomach and Esophagus Cancer:
Early detection is critical for improving the prognosis of stomach and esophageal cancers. At Adwaita Cancer Hospital, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, including:
- Endoscopy: A thin, flexible tube with a camera is used to examine the esophagus and stomach for abnormal growths or tumors.
- Biopsy: During an endoscopy, tissue samples may be taken for analysis to confirm the presence of cancer cells.
- CT Scan: Helps detect the size of the tumor and whether it has spread to nearby organs or lymph nodes.
- PET Scan: Detects cancerous activity and determines if the cancer has metastasized to other areas of the body.
- Barium Swallow: An X-ray technique used to detect abnormalities in the esophagus.
- Ultrasound Endoscopy: A specialized technique to assess the depth of the tumor and its involvement with nearby structures.
