Abstract

Abstract In Japan, esophageal cancer is often more common in men, with a lower incidence in women than in men, accounting for 12% of the total number of cancers. In Japan and the West, SCC is involved in alcohol and tobacco. These habits are characteristically more common among men. Women are more likely to be diagnosed at an earlier stage than men. Therefore, we examined the prognosis, stage, and pathology of 145 men and 30 women who underwent radical surgery for esophageal cancer over the past 5 years. (Result) p stage is male: stage 0:7(5%), stage 1:35(25%), stage II: 58(40%), stage III:35(25%), stage IV:10(7%) female: Stage 0: 2 (7%), Stage 1: 12 (40%), Stage II: 6 (20%), Stage III: 9 (30%), Stage IV: 1 (3%). Significantly more men had advanced cancer. No difference was observed regarding Ly and V. Although there were no differences in location and histology, depth of invasion and lympho node metastasis were significantly enhanced in males. (table 1) Kaplanmier survival rate after 5 years was significantly better for women than for men. (Fig 1).(Conclusion) Compared to men, women had less advanced cancer at the time of discovery and a better 5-year survival rate.
