Adenocarcinoma que se origina e se estende pela junção do estômago e do esôfago. A categoria de adenocarcinomas da junção gastroesofágica também inclui a maioria dos adenocarcinomas anteriormente chamados de adenocarcinomas da cárdia gástrica. Carcinomas de células escamosas que afetam ou ultrapassam a junção do estômago e do esôfago são classificados como carcinomas do esôfago distal. O adenocarcinoma da junção gastroesofágica ocorre com mais frequência em homens caucasianos de meia-idade e idosos. Os sinais e sintomas clínicos incluem disfagia, dor abdominal e perda de peso. O prognóstico depende da completude da ressecção cirúrgica, do número de linfonodos envolvidos pelo câncer e da presença ou ausência de complicações pós-operatórias. | |||

An adenocarcinoma that arises from and straddles the junction of the stomach and esophagus. The category of adenocarcinomas of the gastroesophageal junction also includes the majority of adenocarcinomas previously called gastric cardia adenocarcinomas. Squamous cell carcinomas that affect or cross the junction of the stomach and esophagus are classified as carcinomas of the distal esophagus. Adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction occurs more often in Caucasian middle aged and elderly males. Clinical signs and symptoms include dysphagia, abdominal pain, and weight loss. The prognosis depends on the completeness of the surgical resection, the number of lymph nodes involved by cancer, and the presence or absence of postoperative complications. | |||
