The most common malignant tumor in the proximal two-thirds of the esophagus is squamous cell carcinoma; adenocarcinoma is the most common in the distal one-third.
Gastric adenocarcinoma accounts for 95% of malignant tumors of the stomach; less common are localized gastric lymphomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and leiomyosarcomas.
Risk factors for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma include smoking, alcohol consumption, and a diet low in fruits and vegetables. In contrast, esophageal adenocarcinoma high-risk factors include Barrett esophagus, smoking, high body mass index, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Other risk factors include achalasia, human papillomavirus infection, lye or other caustic substance ingestion (resulting in stricture), sclerotherapy, esophageal webs due to Plummer-Vinson syndrome, and irradiation of the esophagus.
Etiology of stomach cancer is multifactorial, but Helicobacter pylori plays a significant role.
Pernicious anemia and chronic atrophic gastritis increase the risk of intestinal-type gastric cancer up to 6-fold.
Other conditions associated with an increased risk include benign gastric ulcers, hypertrophic gastropathy, and gastric polyps.
Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer is associated with a mutation in the cadherin 1 gene (CDH1) and has no precursor lesion. This mutation is an autosomal dominant trait with high penetrance.
Other genetic syndromes that predispose to stomach cancer include familial adenomatous polyposis, Lynch syndrome, juvenile polyposis syndrome, and Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.
Early-stage esophageal cancer tends to be asymptomatic. When the lumen of the esophagus becomes progressively constricted, dysphagia commonly occurs. The patient first has difficulty swallowing solid food, then semisolid food, and finally liquids and saliva
Weight loss, even when the patient maintains a good appetite, is almost universal. Compression of the recurrent laryngeal nerve may lead to vocal cord paralysis and hoarseness.
Initial symptoms of stomach cancer are nonspecific, often consisting of dyspepsia suggestive of peptic ulcer.
Later, early satiety (fullness after ingesting a small amount of food) may occur if the cancer obstructs the pyloric region or if the stomach becomes nondistensible secondary to linitis plastica.
Dysphagia may result if cancer in the cardiac region of the stomach obstructs the esophageal outlet. Loss of weight or strength, usually resulting from dietary restriction, is common.
Metastatic gastric cancer can present with several distinctive signs, including the Virchow node (ie, left supraclavicular adenopathy), Sister Mary Joseph node (ie, periumbilical nodule), and Irish node (ie, left axillary node).
Direct metastasis to the peritoneum may manifest as a Krukenberg tumor (ovarian mass)
Patients suspected of having esophageal cancer should have endoscopy with cytology and biopsy. Although barium radiograph may show an obstructive lesion, endoscopy is required for biopsy and tissue diagnosis.
Patients in whom esophageal cancer is identified require CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis as well as whole-body positron emission tomography (PET)-CT to determine extent of tumor spread.
If cross-sectional imaging results are negative for metastasis, endoscopic ultrasound should be done to determine the depth of the tumor in the esophageal wall and regional lymph node involvement.
Patients suspected of having stomach cancer should have endoscopy with multiple biopsies and brush cytology.
Patients in whom cancer is identified require CT of the chest and abdomen to determine extent of tumor spread. If CT is negative for metastasis, endoscopic ultrasound should be done to determine the depth of the tumor and regional lymph node involvement.
The carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level should be measured before and after surgery.
The most common variant is the intestinal type, characterized by gland formation and similar in appearance to other intestinal adenocarcinomas. The less common diffuse-type gastric cancer lacks intercellular adhesion molecules and does not typically have gland formation.
Patients with stage 0 and early stage I (T1a) tumors are often amenable to endoscopic resection.
Surgical resection including regional lymphadenectomy is the treatment of choice for patients with stage I gastric cancer.
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for select patients with stage IA gastric cancer. Postoperative chemoradiation therapy or perioperative chemotherapy for patients with node-positive (T1 N1) and muscle-invasive (T2 N0) disease.
Surgical resection (after discussion with a multidisciplinary team regarding the role of perioperative and adjuvant therapy)
Because of the high risk of locoregional and distant recurrence, perioperative and postoperative therapy should be considered in addition to surgery.
Treatment options for stage IV, inoperable, and recurrent gastric cancer, including patients with medically or surgically unresectable disease, include a combination of cytotoxic therapies, targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and palliative locoregional therapies.
Patients with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma should consider undergoing testing for HER2 amplification, defective mismatch repair (dMMR) (immunohistochemistry [IHC] staining), or microsatellite instability (MSI)
along with programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) combined positive score
Self-expandable metal stent positioning is the recommended method for palliation of dysphagia from esophageal cancer.
Fistulas between the esophagus and tracheobronchial tree may cause lung abscess and pneumonia.
The tumor usually metastasizes to lung and liver
Palliative surgery typically consists of a gastroenterostomy to bypass a pyloric obstruction and should be done only if the patient’s quality of life can be improved.
Massive hematemesis or melena is uncommon, but secondary anemia may follow occult blood loss.
