Long-Term Survival Outcomes and Comparison of Different Treatment Modalities for Stage I-III Cervical Esophageal Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To investigate the survival outcomes, prognostic factors and treatment modalities of stage I-III cervical esophageal carcinoma (CEC) patients using data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from the period 2004-2016. Methods: Patients with a histopathologic diagnosis of CEC were included. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Univariate and multivariate analyses of OS were performed using Cox proportional hazards models, and OS was compared using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results: A total of 347 patients in the SEER database were enrolled. The median OS was 14.0 months, with a 5-year OS rate of 20.9%. The parameters that were found to significantly correlate with OS in the multivariate analysis were ag
