摘要:Esophageal cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Its incidence and mortality rank seventh and sixth among all cancers in 2020 [1], respectively. The geographical regions with most esophageal cancer cases and deaths include central and eastern Asia (known as the Asian esophageal cancer belt), parts of Africa, and some South American countries, with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) being the major histological subtype (comprising nearly 90% of cases). Due to the asymptomatic nature of early-stage lesions, more than 80% of ESCC were diagnosed at an advanced stage. This have led to an extremely poor prognosis of ESCC, with 5-year survival rates less than 20% in most countries.
