INCIDENCE, PREVALENCE AND OVERALL RISK OF ESOPHAGEAL CANCER IN ACHALASIA: A PROPENSITY-MATCHED POPULATION-BASED STUDY FROM A LARGE MULTICENTER DATABASE

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Esophageal Achalasia has been investigated as a potential risk factor for esophageal cancer (EC). Longstanding disease, repeated treatment, age and male sex seem the most relevant risk factors, but no clear effect size estimation from large sample cohorts has been provided so far. The aim of the investigators is to estimate EC risk in large sample-size population, and to provide sub-analyses per cancer type and treatment impact on EC risk.
