In short

The esophagus is a hollow tube that carries food and liquids from the throat to the stomach. Early esophageal cancer usually does not cause symptoms, but later symptoms can include painful or difficult swallowing, weight loss, or a hoarse voice or cough that does not go away. The risk of getting esophageal cancer is greater for those who smoke, drink heavily, have acid reflux, or as age increases. Diagnosis is performed using imaging tests and a biopsy, and treatments include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and potentially nutritional support.

Description

The esophagus is a hollow tube that carries food and liquids from your throat to your stomach. Early esophageal cancer usually does not cause symptoms. Later, you may have symptoms such as:

  • Painful or difficult swallowing
  • Weight loss
  • A hoarse voice or cough that doesn't go away

You're at greater risk for getting esophageal cancer if you smoke, drink heavily, or have acid reflux. Your risk also goes up as you age

Your doctor uses imaging tests and a biopsy to diagnose esophageal cancer. Treatments include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. You might also need nutritional support, since the cancer or treatment may make it hard to swallow.
