For patients with intramucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma (T1a EAC), endoscopic treatment (endoscopic resection, followed by ablation) is the current standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This study focused on patients with T1 EAC who underwent successful endoscopic cancer therapy with at least 5 years of clinical follow-up. Among 84 patients (75 T1a, 9 T1b) with a median follow-up of 9.1 years, the overall incidence of neoplastic recurrence was 2.0 cases per 100 patient-years of follow-up. Sixteen patients (19%) experienced neoplastic recurrence (7 low-grade dysplasia, 1 high-grade dysplasia, and 8 EAC), 7 of which occurred after 5 years (3 dysplastic, 4 recurrent EAC) of EAC remission. Encouragingly, 88% of these recurrences were treated successfully with endoscopic treatment. However, EAC recurrence-related mortality was observed in 3 patients at a median of 5.2 years after EAC remission. Achievement of complete eradication of intestinal metaplasia was associated with reduced neoplastic recurrence (hazard ratio, 0.13).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
