First: esophageal cancer is a common digestive tract tumor, about 300000 people die of esophageal cancer every year in the world. The incidence rate and mortality rate vary widely among countries. China is one of the high incidence areas of esophageal cancer in the world, with an average mortality of about 150000 people every year. Male is more than female, the age of onset is more than 40 years old. The typical symptom of esophageal cancer is progressive dysphagia, first difficult to swallow dry food, then semi liquid food, and finally water and saliva.

Second, the population distribution of esophageal cancer is related to age, gender, occupation, race, region, living environment, eating habits and genetic susceptibility. According to the investigation data, esophageal cancer may be caused by many factors. The etiology has been proposed, such as chemical etiology, nitrosamine. These compounds and their precursors are widely distributed and can be formed in vivo and in vitro.

Food passes slowly with a sense of stagnation or foreign matter. Choking stagnation is usually relieved by swallowing water. The symptoms were mild and severe, and the progress was slow.

Esophageal cancer may have a lot to do with our daily living habits. For example, in terms of diet, some people don't like vegetables, but just like meat. If it goes on like this, it is likely to cause intestinal diseases and eventually develop into esophageal cancer.
