Geriatri Ve Üst Gastrointestinal Sistem Kanserleri
Anahtar Kelimeler
Upper gastrointestinal system cancers are frequently
observed worldwide, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Successful
outcomes can be achieved when esophageal and gastric cancers are diagnosed in
their early stages. Screening tests conducted on large populations for early
diagnosis are not sustainable due to high costs. Therefore, it is essential to
identify risk factors, establish high-risk groups, and prioritize screening
programs for these groups. After confirming the diagnosis of malignancy through
biopsy, selecting imaging methods with high specificity and sensitivity, as
well as appropriate combinations, is crucial for accurate staging and
treatment. Stage- and patient-specific treatment choices reduce morbidity and
mortality rates associated with treatment.
