| pubmed-article:1652824 | pubmed:abstractText | The authors consider the most promising long-term results to be achieved in treatment of patients with highly differentiated adenocarcinomas, size of the tumor up to 60 cm and growth of the tumor into the muscle level. The prognosis was doubtful in patients after radical operations but having average degree of differentiation of adenocarcinomas, with size more than 60 cm and growth into the whole esophagus wall. The prognosis was unfavorable in patients with poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas. Metastatic involvement of lymph nodes does not make the prognosis worse. | lld:pubmed |
