Abstract:
The esophageal-gastric junction adenocarcinoma (AEG) is neither completely equivalent to esophageal squamous carcinoma, but also different from the distal gastric adenocarcinoma. This article begins from the concept and classification of AEG, reviews the diagnosis and treatment status of advanced AEG, and explores the molecular classification of gastric adenocarcinoma and AEG, and looks ahead the future of diagnosis and treatment of AEG according to molecular classification.
