Cancer of esophagus was first recorded in China over 2000 years ago
using the name "Ye Ge," which means "hard of swallowing with
blockage of the gullet and vomiting after eating" or "Dysphagia and
Belching." It is also termed "Yi Guan" in many Traditional Chinese
Medicine textbooks and is commonly seen in the elderly and rarely
develops in young people. Esophageal cancer (EC) is one of the most
common malignant tumors in the world. It ranks among 10 most
frequently occurring cancers in the world. Apparently four lakh new
cases of this cancer occur each year. The high incidence rates are
found in China, Japan, Africa, and Iran. EC is the second most
common cancer in men and fifth most common cause of cancer in
females in India. The epidemiological studies have clearly
established very high incidence of the EC in India particularly
from Kashmir region.
