Abstract:
Since the biological characteristics of esophageal gastric junction (EGJ) cancer are different from those of gastric cancer and esophageal cancer, the choice of initial treatment is particularly important. This article introduces a case of locally advanced EGJ can-cer with single metastasis factor treated with preoperative radiochemotherapy in the Beijing Cancer Hospital. Through the multidisci-plinary team, we aim to achieve a better prognosis for this patient and propose new treatment practices for EGJ cancer.
