Survivin is undetectable in normal adult tissues, but has been shown to be overexpressed in various cancers and has been regarded as a marker of malignancy. Polymorphisms which increase the expression of survivin are potential risk factors for esophageal carcinogenesis. The aim of this study is to genotype the survivin promoter polymorphisms namely -31G/C, -241T/C, -625G/C, and -644T/C in esophageal squamous cell cancer patients and controls and to identify a possible association between individual genetic variation and susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
