REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Oesophageal cancer is diagnosed in about 4,00,000 patients each year making it the
9th most common malignancy worldwide and the 6Th in the list of cancer mortality
cause. 3,41,43,44
Epidemiology
The incidence of oesophageal cancer is high in Western Europe, South Central Asia,
Eastern Africa and parts of South America. In the western world the incidence is
highest in the UK followed by France, Ireland and the USA. Men are more affected
The highest incidence rates for males (more than 15 per 100,000 person-years)
Kong and Miyagi, Japan; and the highest rates for females (more than 5 per100,000
There has been a large increase in the EAC and a modest decrease in ESCC in the so-
called ‘developed countries’. This increase in rates may be partly due to a diagnostic
shift. Rates may also increase with an earlier endoscopy based diagnosis. But survival
has consistently been poor even with patients with localized disease.
A cohort study in the Netherlands showed that the incidence of EAC increased from
1.7 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.5 – 5.4) in 1997 to 6.0 per 100,000 in
Similarly the incidence of BE, the main precursor of EAC increased from 14.3 in
100,000 in 1997 to 23.1 per 100,000 in 2002. The increase in the incidences of EAC
and BE was independent of the number of endoscopies performed, because this
number decreased from 7.2 in 100 in 1997 to 5.7 per 100 in 2002.3
These observations suggest that the increase in EAC is real and may reflect changes
in the prevalence of risk factors. It is also interesting to observe that the mortality has

INCLUSION CRITERIA –
1. All cases of all age groups and both genders were included in this study, with
complaints of dysphagia.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA–
1. All cases that have had prior antineoplastic treatment were excluded.
Past illness particularly relating to corrosive intake, any chronic illness and history of
jaundice, was asked for personal history especially for dietary habits and addictions
A general examination of patient was carried out to detect any signs of anemia, a
Local examination of abdomen was done and ENT Examination was carried out.
INVESTIGATIONS-
1. Upper GI endoscopy was done and biopsy from the lesion was taken and sent
diagnosis was established and data was recorded in specially designed proforma. The
presenting with dysphagia was done for diagnosing various esophageal diseases
College. All 100 patients with presenting symptom - dysphagia underwent endoscopic
examination.
An attempt was made to study the incidence of various esophageal diseases with
respect to age, sex, personal history etc. Our aim was to study occurrence of
histopathological examination.
As per our study it was observed under various points stated below –

DISCUSSION
Our study was conducted in C.R.G.H. and associated Hospitals at R.D. Gardi Medical
College, Ujjain from 2nd June 2011 to 28th August 2013. 100 patients were included
in the study who presented with complaint Dysphagia. They were subjected to
In this study 65% were males and 35% females, with male to female ratio 1.85 and
There were 35 (35%) patients with malignant changes and 65 (65%) with benign
causes.
Among the group with benign causes, majority [32 (32%)] were diagnosed as Reflux

In addition in our study it was found that chewing tobaccos in the form of pan

The high female incidence in studies as compared to our study may be attributed to
the higher prevalence of smoking, alcoholism and stressful life in western women as
