To investigate the nature of multiple primary cancers initiated by esophageal cancer-multiple primary cancers (EC-MPC).
PATIENTS & METHODS: SEER data about patients'/tumor characteristics, and survival were analyzed and compared.
RESULTS & CONCLUSION: 1727 of 29,733 registered EC patients have EC-MPC. Individuals diagnosed at 60-79 years old, earlier stage and/or moderately differentiated EC were more likely to get EC-MPC. Fewer patients in the EC-MPC group suffered from metastases. Patients in the EC-MPC group showed a longer survival rate and lower EC-specific deaths. Other factors like age, sex, race, tumor differentiation and Tumor, Node, Metastasis stage also affected survival. Radiation can improve survival. EC-MPC patients have some distinct features compared with solitary EC.
探讨食管癌多发癌(EC-MPC)的性质。
分析并比较 SEER 数据中有关患者/肿瘤特征和生存情况的数据。
29733 例登记的食管癌患者中有 1727 例患有食管癌多发癌。60-79 岁、早期和/或中度分化的食管癌患者更容易患有食管癌多发癌。多发癌组的转移患者较少。多发癌组的患者生存率更高,食管癌特异性死亡人数更少。年龄、性别、种族、肿瘤分化程度和肿瘤淋巴结转移分期等其他因素也影响生存。放疗可以改善生存。与单发食管癌相比,食管癌多发癌患者有一些明显的特征。
