Esophageal cancer is a disease which affects the cells of the esophagus. Our body is a structure made of various cell types. Cells grow and divide to produce newer cells whenever required under normal circumstances for the functioning of the body to be healthy. But sometimes the cells keep on dividing that the additional cells become tumor or extra growth. These tumors can be either malignant or benign. Benign tumors might not become cancer and can be removed easily. They also do not spread to various body parts that they become life threatening very rarely. Malignant tumors on the contrary are cancerous; they divide without any order or control. Cancerous cells can most often invade and in turn destroy the tissues present around them. They can also enter in to the lymphatic system or bloodstream. This is called as the state of metastasis. In the case of esophageal cancer metastasis, the cancerous cells spread to the exteriors of the esophagus and spreads to the lymph nodes first often. And subsequently can spread to any body part including bones, brain, lungs and liver. Most often esophageal cancer metastasis happens during the fourth stage of esophageal cancer. Due to...more
