Abstract
Background With the development of endoscopic technology, the detection rate of synchronous multiple primary early esophageal cancer (SMPEEC) is increasing; however, the risk factors remain unclear. We aimed to assess the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with SMPEEC and investigate the risk factors contributing to the development of multiple lesions. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 911 consecutive patients who underwent Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for primary esophageal neoplasms from January 2013 to June 2021. The patients were divided into the SMPEEC group and the solitary early esophageal cancer (SEEC) group. We compared the differences in clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups and investigated the risk factors linked to multiple lesions. Additionally, we investigated the relationship between the main and accessory lesions. Results A total of 87 SMPEEC patients were included in this study, and the frequency of synchronous multiple lesions was 9.55% in patients with early esophageal cancer. The lesions in the SMPEEC group were mainly located in the lower segment of the esophagus (46[52.9%]), whereas those in the SEEC group were in the middle segment (412[50.0%]). The pathology type, tumor location, and circumferential rate of lesions were independent risk factors(P<0.05) for SMPEEC by logistic regression analysis. Significant positive correlations were observed between the main and accessory lesions in terms of morphologic type (r=0.632, P=0.000), tumor location(r=0.325, P=0.037), pathologic type (r=0.299, P=0.003), and depth of invasion (r=0.562, P=0.000). Conclusion Pathology type, tumor location, and circumferential rate of lesions were identified as independent risk factors for SMEPPC. Understanding these risk factors and the correlation between the main and accessory lesions could significantly improve the detection rate of SMPEEC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, with the development of endoscopic technology, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been widely used in the treatment of early esophageal cancer (EEC) and squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (SIN) because of its low risk of complications and faster recovery. This study focused on evaluating the clinical features of EEC and SIN in elderly patients and the safety of ESD treatment.
AIM To analyze the clinical characteristics of EEC and SIN in patients of different ages.
METHODS A total of 349 patients with EEC or SIN (including high- and low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia) treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to October 2022 were included. According to the age at the time of surgery, the patients were divided into either an elderly group (≥ 65 years old) or a young and middle-aged group (< 65 years old), and the general clinical data (gender, smoking status, alcohol consumption, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, history of other tumors, abdominal surgery history, family history of digestive tract tumor, etc.) and pathological data (lesion location, pathological type, depth of invasion, endoscopic classification, lesion length and diameter, presence of multiple lesions or not, combination with chronic esophagitis, gastric polyps, or atrophic gastritis or not, etc.) were compared between the two groups, and the postoperative related indicators (postoperative hospital stay, postoperative bleeding, esophageal stricture, and resection margin) of the two groups were compared.
RESULTS The number of patients with hypertension was significantly higher in the elderly group (P = 0.034), while the proportion of patients with smoking history was significantly higher in the middle-aged and young group (P = 0.017). In terms of lesion location, the lesions in the young and middle-aged group were mostly located in the lower thoracic segment, while the lesions in the elderly group were mostly located in the middle thoracic segment (P = 0.005); the lesions in the elderly group were more serious than those in the young and middle-aged group (P = 0.005); and the elderly group had a higher proportion of patients with combined gastric polyps (P = 0.026). In terms of complications and length of hospital stay after ESD, there was no significant difference between the two groups.
CONCLUSION Elderly patients with ESC or SIN have more comorbidities and relatively serious lesions. According to the location of the lesion, more detailed endoscopic observation and close follow-up should be carried out to improve the prognosis of such elderly patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is difficult to distinguish esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with intramural metastases (IM) from multiple primary oesophageal carcinoma (MPEC). Nevertheless, there are significant differences in their prognoses and treatments. Therefore, our study aims to clarify the clinicopathological and prognostic characteristics of these two entities and to provide clues for differential diagnosis. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 6304 patients who underwent esophagectomy without neoadjuvant therapy. The clinicopathological and prognostic features of patients with IM and MPEC were evaluated. P53 and Rb1 were detected by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining using a tissue microarray. RESULTS Among the 6304 patients, 127 (2.0%) had IM, and 138 (2.2%) had MPEC. Patients with IM were more likely to have an advanced pT (p < 0.001), pN (p < 0.001), more lymphovascular invasion (p < 0.001) and neural invasion (p < 0.001). Additionally, patients with IM had an extremely poor prognosis compared to those with MPEC, with 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 18.9% and 56.9%, respectively. Meanwhile, IM was found to be an independent poor prognostic indicator for OS and DFS. In the IM group, all patients showed consistent p53 expression in both primary and IM foci. Of note, Rb1 loss was found in 3 pairs of primary foci and metastases, along with p53 nonsense mutation. CONCLUSIONS Patients with IM had more risk factors and extremely worse prognosis than those with MPEC. It is essential to discriminate IM from MPEC when managing multifocal carcinomas. IHC staining of p53 and Rb1 may aid in differential diagnosis.

Multiple Lugol-unstained lesions predict higher cumulative risk of malignance in the esophagus. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 38:416-423. [PMID: 36418206 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The impact of the presence of multiple Lugol-unstained lesions (LULs) in the esophagus on the risk of having severe dysplasia and above (SDA) lesions among asymptomatic individuals is unknown. METHODS We collected demographic factors, behavioral variables, and features of LULs from 1073 participants who were biopsied at baseline endoscopic screening in a population-based screening trial, and these individuals were followed over a median time of 7 years. Outcome events were defined as SDA identified at screening, at reexamination, or during follow-up. "Multiple LULs" were defined as ≥ 2 LULs found in the entirety of the esophagus. Multivariable logistic regression models were fitted to assess the effect of "multiple LULs" on the cumulative risk of SDA. RESULTS There were 147 SDA cases in the current study. After adjustment for potential risk factors and endoscopic features of LULs, the presence of "multiple LULs" slightly increased the cumulative risk of having SDA with no statistical significance (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.85, 1.88]). Further stratified analysis showed that this association was strong among subjects with small LULs (≤ 5 mm) (adjusted OR = 3.29; 95% CI [1.39, 7.79]). However, no such association was observed in subjects with larger LULs (adjusted OR = 0.99; 95% CI [0.63, 1.55], P interaction = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS The presence of "multiple small LULs (≤ 5 mm)" in chromoendoscopy indicates a higher cumulative risk of having SDA in the esophagus. We recommend biopsies be taken and surveillance be maintained at a more active level in individuals with relatively small but multiple LULs.

Survival and prognostic factors in patients with synchronous multiple primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma receiving definitive radiotherapy: A propensity score-matched analysis. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1132423. [PMID: 37035207 PMCID: PMC10080148 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1132423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose To compare the lesion characteristics and radiotherapy efficacy of patients with single and multiple esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), to evaluate the effect of multiple lesions on ESCC, and establish a nomogram survival prediction model for patients with synchronous multiple primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SMPESCC) who received definitive radiotherapy. Materials and methods The study enrolled 1,034 patients with ESCC who underwent definitive radiotherapy between 2010 and 2020. The efficacy of radiotherapy was compared between 101 patients with SMPESCC and 933 patients with single ESCC. Propensity score matching was used to control for potential confounders. For patients with SMPESCC, a nomogram prediction model was established based on the Cox regression model. Results The median OS was 30.00 (95% CI = 25.08-34.92) months for the single lesion group and 19.00 (95% CI = 15.51-22.48) months for the multiple cancer group respectively. Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that multiple cancer was an independent prognostic factor for ESCC patients (HR=1.89, 95%CI=1.49-2.38, P<0.001). Cox multivariate analysis of SMPESCC patients showed that T stage (P =0.002), chemotherapy (P =0.006), and lesion spacing (P =0.004) were independent prognostic factors associated with OS. The nomogram was established by combining T stage, chemotherapy, and lesion spacing, and Harrell's C index was 0.711 after internal cross-validation. The calibration curve and decision curve analysis confirmed that the nomogram survival prediction model had a good predictive value for individual survival. Conclusions The survival rate of single esophageal cancer is significantly better than that of multiple lesions. Patients with SMPESCC exhibit worse survival than patients with single ESCC. Multiple lesions have a significant impact on the survival of patients with ESCC. The nomogram model established for SMPESCC patients can well predict the individual survival of patients.

Abstract
Background Synchronous multiple primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (S-MPESCC) refers to more than one primary esophageal carcinoma detected in a solitary patient at the time of initial presentation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features, appropriate surgical approaches and long-term survival in patients with S-MPESCC by comparing with those with solitary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC). Methods In total, 567 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma surgically resected in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2012 to December 2018 were screened for retrospective analysis (50 in the S-MPESCC group and 516 in the SESCC group). Results No significant difference was observed in terms of other characteristics except total alcohol consumption (P = 0.029). S-MPESCC had higher lymph node rate than SESCC (62.0% and 44.1%, respectively; P = 0.015) especially in upper mediastinal (32.0% and 18.6%, respectively; P = 0.023) and abdominal (38.0% and 22.8%, respectively; P = 0.017) regions. The survival was not different between the two groups, and the 5-year survival rates of S-MPESCC and SESCC were 46.2% and 50.8%, respectively (P = 0.507). But for patients with pT3-4 cancers, the survival in S-MPESCC was worse than that in SESCC (P = 0.033). In the multivariate analysis, pT stage of primary cancer was an important independent predictor of prognosis in patients with S-MPESCC (hazard ratio [HR], 3.968; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.031 to 15.268; P = 0.045). Conclusions S-MPESCC was significantly different from SESCC in terms of clinicopathological characteristics include alcohol intake and pattern of lymphatic metastasis. Furthermore, S-MPESCC showed worse long-term survival than SESCC with increasing depth of primary cancer infiltration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS We aimed to study the clinical characteristics, treatment modality, and the prognosis of synchronous multiple primary esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (SMPESCC). METHODS A total of 117 SMPESCC cases were evaluated retrospectively from 2010 to 2015. RESULTS The most common locations of SMPESCC were mid- and lower thoracic segments (n = 208, 84.9%). The 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates were 53.8%, 30.8%, and 15.4%, respectively; the median survival time (MST) was 12.5 months. With definitive radiotherapy and surgery, respectively, the MST of stage I/II patients were 34.2 and 26.7 months, of stage III patients were 8.3 and 13.2 months (p = 0.163), and of stage IV patients were and 8 and 12.6 months (p = 0.379). Clinical stage, family history of cancer, and Karnofsky performance status were independent prognostic factors for the whole cohort by Cox multivariate regression analysis (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.859, p < 0.001; HR = 0.579, p = 0.032; and HR = 0.586, p = 0.013). CONCLUSION Although the prognosis of SMPESCC is poor, stage I/II patients can achieve long-term survival with aggressive treatment, especially those with a Karnofsky performance score 90 or higher and who have no family history of cancer. Definitive radiotherapy could achieve a similar survival rate to definitive surgery at different clinical stages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical effect of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EESCC) is widely recognized. However, the long-term treatment outcome of simultaneous ESD for multiple EESCC currently remained unknown. Hence, this study was aimed at further evaluating the long-term outcome of simultaneous ESD for synchronous multiple EESCC by comparing with ESD for single EESCC. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent ESD for EESCC from June 2008 to June 2018 were included. Propensity score-matched analysis was used to compensate for the differences in age, sex, tumor location, tumor size, and tumor invasion depth between simultaneous and single ESD groups. Treatment outcomes including en bloc resection rate, curative resection rate, complication rate, and long-term outcomes including overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), metachronous recurrence were compared between the 2 groups after matching. RESULTS The propensity score-matched analysis included 332 lesions (166 patients) and 332 lesions (332 patients) in simultaneous and single ESD groups, respectively. Among all the outcomes, en bloc resection, curative resection, 5-year OS, and 5-year RFS rates were comparable. Complications were more common in the simultaneous ESD group (15.06% vs. 9.64%, P = 0.073). The 5-year metachronous recurrence rates were significantly high in the simultaneous ESD groups (24.28% vs. 6.99%). CONCLUSIONS Simultaneous ESD is an effective and safe methodology for synchronous multiple EESCC; it also reduces hospital stay and medical expenses. The risk of metachronous recurrence is higher for patients with synchronous multiple EESCC; thus, more intensive strategies are required.

Abstract
Objective: Synchronous multiple primary early esophageal cancers (SMPEEC) are rare and aggressive. Early detection of esophageal cancer can improve survival rate. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive endoscopic treatment of early esophageal cancers. However, ESD for SMPEEC is little known. We aimed to clarify the clinical outcomes of simultaneous ESD treating SMPEEC. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical data of 34 patients, who underwent ESD for SMPEEC at Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, between May 2013 and December 2014. The data of lesion size, histopathology, en bloc resection, curative resection, complication, and tumor local recurrence were analyzed. Results: Among 34 patients, 67 lesions were removed simultaneously in 33 cases; 2 lesions were removed in 2 operations for 1 case. For the simultaneous resection, the en bloc rate was 97.01% (65/67) and the curative resection rate was 92.54% (62/67). Postoperative stricture occurred in two cases and delayed bleeding occurred in one case. There was one local recurrence, no metastasis or procedure-related death. Conclusions: Simultaneous ESD as a treatment for SMPEEC is technically feasible, benefited from reducing hospitalization time and medical expenses. For the cases with risk factors of complications, simultaneous ESD needs to be avoided.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to determine the clinical characteristics and predictors of survival for patients with multiple metachronous esophageal tumors (MMET) and to compare the survival with patients that have single esophageal tumor (SET). METHOD We identified all cases of primary esophageal cancer from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results program database from 2000 to 2013. The primary outcome was the development of a second esophageal cancer six months after the diagnosis of the first tumor. A secondary outcome was disease-specific death from esophageal cancer. Chi-square test was used to compare the tumor and demographic characteristics of patients with SET versus the first and second tumor characteristics of patients with MMET. Logistic regression was used to obtain the odds ratios between patients with secondary tumors and those with primary tumors. Accelerated life model was performed for patients with MMET to determine the predictors of survival. RESULTS Patients with MMET were more likely to have localized stage disease compared to those with SET (P < 0.0001). Distant stage disease for both first tumor (β = -0.402, P = 0.003) and second tumor (β = -0.301, P = 0.033) were predictors of increased mortality. The interval between the first and second tumor affected survival. Intervals of 2-5 years and > 5 years were associated with a reduced hazard with a β = 0.53 and 1.13, P < 0.0001, respectively. CONCLUSION Early development of a second tumor in MMET is associated with poorer survival. Patients with MMET may benefit from regular follow-up and intervention to prevent the development of a second tumor.
