¿Qué es el cáncer de esófago?

El cáncer de esófago es una forma grave y a menudo agresiva de cáncer que afecta al esófago, el largo conducto que va de la garganta al estómago. Este tipo de cáncer suele comenzar en las células que recubren el interior del esófago y puede aparecer en cualquier parte de su longitud. Existen dos tipos principales de cáncer de esófago: el carcinoma de células escamosas, que surge de las células planas y finas que recubren el esófago, y el adenocarcinoma, que se origina en las células que segregan moco y otras sustancias. La incidencia del adenocarcinoma ha aumentado en los últimos años, sobre todo en los países occidentales, y está estrechamente relacionada con la enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico (ERGE) y el esófago de Barrett, una afección en la que el revestimiento normal del esófago cambia debido al reflujo ácido crónico.

Los factores de riesgo del cáncer de esófago son el tabaquismo, el consumo excesivo de alcohol, los antecedentes de ERGE, la obesidad y una dieta pobre en frutas y verduras. Los síntomas no suelen aparecer hasta que el cáncer está avanzado, lo que dificulta el diagnóstico precoz. Los síntomas más frecuentes son dificultad para tragar, pérdida de peso, dolor torácico y tos persistente. El diagnóstico suele realizarse mediante una combinación de endoscopia, en la que se introduce un tubo con una cámara por la garganta para examinar el esófago, y biopsias, en las que se toman pequeñas muestras de tejido para su análisis. Las opciones de tratamiento varían en función del estadio del cáncer y pueden incluir cirugía, quimioterapia, radioterapia o una combinación de éstas. Por desgracia, el pronóstico del cáncer de esófago suele ser malo, sobre todo si se diagnostica en una fase avanzada. La detección precoz y los cambios en el estilo de vida, como dejar de fumar y reducir el consumo de alcohol, son fundamentales para mejorar los resultados de las personas en situación de riesgo.

¿Qué es la Oncología?

La oncología es una rama de la ciencia que examina la formación, las causas, el diagnóstico, el tratamiento y la relación de los tumores en el cuerpo con la herencia. Examina las células no cancerosas y las cancerosas. Esto amplía los campos de interés en oncología. La oncología médica, que examina las aplicaciones de la quimioterapia, es decir, el tratamiento del cáncer con medicamentos, también examina la prevención del cáncer, la detección del cáncer y las aplicaciones de diagnóstico temprano. La oncología radioterápica es una ciencia médica que estudia los efectos de los procedimientos de tratamiento que utilizan radioterapia en las células cancerosas. Las cirugías oncológicas suelen ser realizadas por cirujanos oncológicos con experiencia avanzada en la cirugía del cáncer respectivo.
