Human life relies on two basic supplies from nature: oxygen and food. Oxygen can be utilized directly, but food has to go through a process of digestion to become usable nutrients. The esophagus represents the beginning of this long journey. Because of its critical location, esophageal cancer is one of the deadliest malignancies in the world, and furthermore its incidence has been rising steadily year after year while other cancers are declining. It is predicted that by the year 2035 the esophageal cancer population will increase by 77.4% and become one of top global concerns. This book covers many aspects of esophageal cancer, through which we hope to raise the awareness of professionals as well as non-professionals about this disease.

Esophageal Diseases and the Role of the Microbiome provides evidence on biomic influence in esophageal diseases. The book builds on the translational information on H pylori for ulcer disease as well as the explosive focus on biomic influence in virtually all areas of esophageal diseases. This important reference will help translational researchers by providing scientific understanding and hypothesis generation that is needed for furthering this field of study. It will also provide clinicians with disease management options for esophageal diseases (for GERD and PPI options/side effects) and present cutting-edge science to promote provider/patient understanding and options.

Obesity and Esophageal Disorders is a comprehensive review on the impact of obesity on esophageal disorders and how to approach, recognize and treat those disorders. Covering the critical gap in awareness on the impact of obesity on esophageal disorders, this reference presents the newest diagnostic technologies, including high resolution manometry, EndoFLIP, wireless pH monitoring, and mucosal integrity devices. The book shows treatment options like bariatric surgery and endo-bariatrics that decrease the latency period for diagnosis and management of patients. Finally, the understanding of the potential effects of different bariatric surgeries on esophageal motility is explored.

Assessment of surgical innovation is a complex task. This is especially true in esophageal surgery owing to difficulties in interpreting pathophysiology, staging malignant tumors with accuracy, standardizing and tailoring the available surgical procedures to the individual patient. Furthermore, adoption of innovative procedures in this field is usually confined to high-volume centers of excellence. This book introduces the general and the thoracic surgeon to the latest developments in esophageal surgery. In each chapter, a concise background analysis of the topic in question and a state of the art review is presented. The indications for surgery and the rationale for adopting innovative techniques or technologies are discussed in detail. Challenging questions and comments by selected panelists complement each chapter, enhancing the quality of information. Innovation in Esophageal Surgery will be highly informative for both the novice and the expert surgeon wishing to enter the arena of esophageal surgery.
