Discussion

This analysis rates the global incidence of esophageal cancer and identifies key risk factors, suggesting preventive measures.

Esophageal cancer incidence shows significant geographic variability, particularly between regions in Asia and Russia.
About 85% of esophageal cancer cases are squamous cell carcinoma, while adenocarcinoma accounts for 14%.
High-risk factors for squamous cell carcinoma include smoking, alcohol use, and dietary deficiencies, emphasizing the need for prevention.
Current preventive measures have curbed squamous cell carcinoma incidence, although further work is necessary, especially for adenocarcinoma.
