A Clear Understanding of Esophagus Cancer

The esophagus is a muscular tube that helps move food and liquids from your mouth to your stomach. Esophagus cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in this area, leading to serious complications. There are mainly two types of esophagus tumor:
  • Squamous Cell Carcinoma, detected in the upper and middle parts of the esophagus.
  • Adenocarcinoma, which occurs in the lower part of the esophagus near the stomach.
Some common symptoms of esophagus cancer include:
  • Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia).
  • Unexplained weight loss.
  • Chest pain or discomfort.
  • Chronic cough or hoarseness.
  • Acid reflux or indigestion that doesn’t improve.
Early detection and treatment can help manage these symptoms effectively.

How I Diagnose Esophagus Cancer

Accurate diagnosis is the first step toward effective treatment. At my clinic, I use advanced diagnostic techniques to identify the extent and stage of esophagus cancer treatment in Ahmedabad. These include:

Endoscopy

A thin, flexible tube with a camera is used to examine the esophagus for abnormal growths or changes.

Whipple Procedure

Imaging Tests

Advanced imaging techniques like CT scans, PET scans, and MRI help determine how far the cancer has spread.

Biopsy

During the endoscopy, I take a small tissue sample to analyze for cancerous cells.

Imaging Tests

Barium Swallow X-Ray

A special X-ray test is done to highlight the esophagus and detect abnormalities.

Esophagus Cancer Surgical Treatments

Surgical treatment is often the key to managing esophagus cancer, especially when the disease is localized. I specialize in advanced surgical techniques for esophagus cancer treatment in Ahmedabad, including:

Esophagectomy

This involves removing part or the entire esophagus and reconstructing it using a section of the stomach or intestine.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

I use advanced laparoscopic and robotic techniques to perform precise surgeries with minimal incisions, which reduces recovery time and complications.

Robotic-Assisted Surgery

Robotic technology enhances precision, especially in complex cases, and reduces damage to surrounding tissues.

Distal Pancreatectomy

Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR)

A less invasive technique that removes early-stage esophageal tumors is done by an endoscope, that lessens the need for major surgery.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Submucosal Dissection (ESD)

A specialized technique that removes deeper layers of cancerous tissue while preserving the rest of the esophagus.

Additional Diagnostic Tools

Transhiatal Esophagectomy

This surgery involves removing the esophagus through an incision in the abdomen and neck, without opening the chest. It is less invasive and can be a suitable option for certain patients with esophageal cancer.
