Neoplasm of Esophagus
A neoplasm is a type of abnormal and excessive growth of tissue. The process that occurs to form or produce a neoplasm is called neoplasia. The growth of a neoplasm is uncoordinated with that of the normal surrounding tissue, and persists in growing abnormally, even if the original trigger is removed. This abnormal growth usually forms a mass, when it may be called a tumor.
Esophageal cancer occurs when cells in the esophagus develop changes (mutations) in their DNA.
The changes make cells grow and divide out of control.
The accumulating abnormal cells form a tumor in the esophagus that can grow to invade nearby structures and spread to other parts of the body.
Spread of carcinoma
- Direct-
- The lesion may fill the lumen and infiltrate the wall of esophagus. It may also spread to the adjoining structures such as the trachea, left bronchus, aorta or pericardium.
- Involvement of the recurrent laryngeal nerves causes aspiration problems.
Lymphatic–
- Depending on the site involved, cervical, mediastinal or coeliac nodes may be involved.
- Cervical and thoracic lesions also spread to supraclavicular nodes.
- “Skip lesions” may also occur due to spread through the submucosal lymphatics.
- Blood borne-
- Metastases may develop in the liver, lungs, bone and brain.
- Smoking and alcohol consumption are high-risk factors and so are some particular dietary habits.
- High incidence is associated with tobacco chewing and smoking.
- About 5% of esophageal cancers arise in the pre-existing pathological lesions, such as benign strictures, hiatus hernia, cardiac achalasia and diverticula.
- Plummer–Vinson syndrome is another predisposing factor.
Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common (93%). Adenocarcinoma (3%) is also seen, but in the lower esophagus, and may be an upward extension of the gastric carcinoma.
Other types are rare.
Classification of Neoplasm of Esophagus
- Benign neoplasms:
- Benign neoplasms are rare compared to malignant ones. Leiomyoma is the most common and accounts for two thirds of all the benign neoplasms.
- It arises from the smooth muscle and grows in the wall of esophagus.
Dysphagia is produced when tumor exceeds the diameter of 5 cm. Barium swallow shows an ovoid filling defect.
- Endoscopy reveals a submucosal swelling. Biopsy should not be taken.
- Treatment is enucleation of the tumor by thoracotomy. Mucosal polyps, lipomas, fibromas and hemangiomas are other benign tumors.
- They are often pedunculated and present in the esophageal lumen. Endoscopic removal is avoided because of the danger of esophageal perforation. Treatment is surgical excision by esophagostomy.
- Carcinoma esophagus
- Incidence of esophageal carcinoma is high in China, Japan, USSR and South Africa.
- In India, it constitutes 3.6% of all body cancers in the rich and 9.13% of those in the poor.
- Early symptoms. They include substernal discomfort and preference for soft or liquid food.
- Progressive dysphagia and emaciation. Dysphagia first to solids and then to liquids. Patient loses weight and becomes emaciated.
- Pain. Usually signifies extension of tumor beyond the walls of esophagus. It is referred to the back.
- Aspiration problem. Spread of cancer may cause laryngeal paralysis or fistulae formation leading to cough, hoarseness of voice, aspiration pneumonia and mediastinitis.
Barium swallow-
- It shows narrow and irregular esophageal lumen, without proximal dilatation of the esophagus.
Esophagoscopy-
- Useful to see the site of involvement, extent of the lesion and to take biopsy. Flexible fiberoptic oesophagoscope obviates the need for general anesthesia and gives a magnified view.
Bronchoscopy-
- It helps to exclude extension of growth into the trachea and bronchi.
CT scan-
- It is useful to assess the extent of disease and nodal metastases
