Best Cancer Hospitals for Advanced Esophageal
Cancer Treatment Cancer that forms in tissues
lining the esophagus (the muscular tube through
which food passes from the throat to the
stomach). Two types of esophageal cancer are
squamous cell carcinoma (cancer that begins in
flat cells lining the esophagus) and
adenocarcinoma (cancer that begins in cells that
make and release mucus and other fluids).
Esophageal cancer has been categorized into two
types that include  Adenocarcinoma This type
of esophageal cancer starts in the glandular
tissue in the lower part of the esophagus. The
stomach and the esophagus appear together in this
lower part of esophagus.  Squamous Cell
Carcinoma Squamous cell carcinoma begins in the
squamous cells lining the esophagus. This type of
esophageal cancer typically occurs in the middle
and upper part of the esophagus.

  •   Stage 0 In this stage, the abnormal or
    unusual cells can only be seen in the layer of
    cells lining the esophagus
  •  Stage 1 The first stage is marked by the
    presence of cancer cells in the layer of cells
    lining the esophagus.
  •  Stage 2 In the second stage, the cancer has
    reached to the outer wall of the esophagus or to
    the muscle layer of the esophagus. Also these
    cancer cells may have invaded 1-2 surrounding
    lymph nodes
  •  Stage 3 The third stage is marked by the
    spread of the cancer into the connective tissue
    wall or deep into the inner muscle layer. Also
    this cancer has spread to more lymph nodes close
    to esophagus and they may also spread beyond
    esophagus in the surrounding organ.
  •  Stage 4 This is considered as the advanced
    stage of esophageal cancer. Now the cancer has
    spread to lymph nodes far away from the esophagus
    or to different organs.

Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Hospitals in
India
Surgery The surgical procedure can remove
nearby soft tissues, a section of the esophagus
and the lymph nodes. The entire or a part of the
stomach can also be removed. The cancer is
removed by making several incisions in the
abdomen and chest
Radio Therapy High-energy radiation beams are
targeted on the cancerous tissue in order to
destroy it. Radiotherapy is usually used in
addition with either chemotherapy or surgery. 
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) In this
outpatient procedure, controlled bursts of
radiofrequency energy burn away thin layers of
abnormal tissue on the surface of the esophagus,
leaving healthy tissue intact.
Chemotherapy People with esophageal cancer can
also be treated with the help of chemotherapy.
This therapy makes use of certain drugs that
helps in destroying the cancer cells. The
injection of these drugs is done into a vein
(intravenous) that then travels throughout the
different parts of the body.
Photodynamic Therapy A form of treatment that
uses a photosensitizing agent, administered by
mouth or intravenously, which concentrates
selectively in certain cells, followed by
exposure of the involved tissue to a special
light (such as laser or ultraviolet light), in
order to destroy as much of the abnormal tissue
as possible.
