Abstract

Vikrant Singh

Esophageal cancer (EC) is a very common malignancy; 50% of cases had distant metastases at the time of diagnosis, and the majority of patients are men. Male EC (MEC) and female EC (FEC) clinicopathological features and metastatic patterns were compared in this study (FEC). Furthermore, risk variables linked to MEC prognosis were examined. The population for this study was taken from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database. The descriptive analysis, the Kaplan-Meier technique, and the Cox regression model were used to assess MEC features and variables related to prognosis.
