Changing patterns and surgical results in adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus

Background Prognosis of oesophageal adenocarcinoma is notoriously dismal. To examine the changing patterns of and treatment strategies for this disease, the longitudinal experience of a single institution over 16 years is reported.
