Treatment of the esophagus cancer in Germany

Esophagus cancer is a malignant disease with tumor cells appearing in the tissues of the esophagus. Symptoms comprise weight loss, painful swallowing, hoarse voice and other conditions. The risk group includes those keen on hot food and drinks, a dreary diet with insufficient consumption of fruits and vegetables, resulting in a vitamin deficiency.

After a thorough diagnosis, German specialists develop an individual treatment plan for the patient. The main method of treating esophageal cancer in German clinics is surgery. It is performed if there are no metastases.

Recently, endoscopic intervention in esophageal cancer has been actively used as well. It is executed with the help of high-frequency current, which separates the neoplasm.
