Aim:
To analyze patients with chemical burn of esophagus followed by cancer.
Material And Methods:
Since 2010 till 2017 esophageal cancer has been diagnosed in 4 patients with esophageal cicatrical stenosis after previous chemical burn. Cervical segment of the esophagus was involved in 1 case.
Results:
Resectable tumor was observed only in 1 patient. In 3 cases stenting was performed (palliative intervention in 2 patients and as preoperative stage in 1 case). Stomach probe for feeding was deployed in 1 observation.
Conclusion:
Patients after previous chemical burn of the esophagus and esophagoplasty should be under follow-up for timely diagnosis and treatment of esophageal malignancies.

Esophageal Strictures-I: Introduction
Etiology
The primary cause of esophageal strictures is long-standing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), accounting for about 70 to 80% of adult cases. Chronic acid reflux can lead to injury and scarring of the esophageal lining, culminating in...
