title: [Increased incidence of adenocarcinomas in the esophagus and cardia--effect of epidemiologic data on developments in surgery].
abstract: Results of this study show an increasing incidence of adenocarcinoma in the esophagus and cardia. The reasons of this rise are speculative. Adequate diagnostic and therapeutic strategies must be evaluated; these can only be performed in specialist centers.
