Our financial year starts from 1st May. There are few vacancies, so We can accommodate few new members also. Those who are interested to join AMA Cultural Forum, may contact AMA office immediately, because this is only on first cum first basis. Friends, we doctors get very little time for entertainment - entertainment for ourselves and our family members - out of our busy schedules. Keeping this in mind, AMA Cultural Forum was started Six years ago, so that our members can enjoy entertainment with their family in own group of colleagues. Particularly since last two years the drama cost has increased by 25% and similarly that of musical programmes has also increased by 25% while hall cost has increased by 50%. As we are committed to offer quality programmes to our members, all this has forced us to make little rise in our membership fee structure. We hope our esteem members will bear with us and cooperate us. Persuade your friends also to become member of cultural forum. Total membership is 650 in number as per the capacity of Hall. The new structure of fees is • Renewal membership fee Rs. 1500/- per person • New membership fee Rs. 1500+Rs.200/- (as Reg. fee) per person. • For more details please contact AMA office.

The reported number was about 41000 & odd numbers of new cases in our country in 2012. This is likely to go upto about 52000 by 2020 & about 68000 by 2030. Symptoms of Esophageal cancer often include trouble swallowing and weight loss. Other symptoms may include pain with swallowing, a hoarse voice, enlarged lymph nodes around the clavicle ,a dry cough, and possibly coughing up or vomiting blood. The two main sub-types of esophageal cancer are squamous-cell carcinoma which is more common in the developing world and adenocarcinoma . which is more common in the developed world In our experience 70% is squamous & 30 % is adenocarcinoma. A number of less common types also occur. Squamous-cell carcinoma arises from the skin cells that line the esophagus. Adenocarcinoma arises from glandular cells present in the lower third of the esophagus, often where they have already transformed to intestinal cell type(a condition known as Barrett's esophagus) The most common causes of the squamous-cell type are: tobacco, alcohol, very hot drinks, and a poor diet. The most common causes of the adenocarcinoma type are smoking tobacco, obesity, and acid reflux. The disease is diagnosed by biopsy done by an endoscope. Apart from routine CECT, PETCT is increasingly used in this cancer for the staging. Endoscopic Ultrasonography(EUS) is also used in specialised centers for further information of mediastinum in selected cases. Treatment is based on the cancer's stage and location, together with the person's general condition and individual preferences. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is the removal of small tumors by endoscope, that only involves the mucosa or lining of the esophagus (stage T1a). Small localized squamous-cell cancers (T2N0) may be treated with surgery alone with the hope of a cure. At HCG Cancer Center, Ahmedabad we treat all patients of esophageal cancer beyond T2 & N+ by Preoperative Chemo-Radiotherapy. The protocol we use is 25# of radiotherapy by a very high end radiation machine Rapid Arc. It radiates in 360 dgree in every fraction & that is how 95% of patients complete the treatment without interruption. The chemotherapy given during this treatment is Paclitaxol & Carboplatin every week for 5 weeks. There after there is a recovery period of 4-6 weeks & than all patients are subjected to Investigations to stage the disease. 30 Thereafter all patients with abdominal oesophageal cancers are treated by IvorLewis operation & all thoracic oesophageal cancers are treated by thoracoscopic mobilisation of oesophagus so no need of thoracotomy at all. Than oesophagogastric anastomosis is done in left neck. We do all anastomosis by hand sewn methods. Because of this minimally invasive technique sometimes we have been able to discharge the patient as early as 6th post operative day. The pulmonologist is always the part of our team & has resulted in significantly reducing pulmonary complications. In recent times with the concerted efforts morbidity of oesophageal surgery has gone down to <20% & mortality 2-5%. The pathologists will report all the specimens in details giving us the information about the effect of chemoradiation. In about 30% of patients there is no rasidual tumour in the specimen. We expect this patients are likely to have long term survival. With this kind of approach five-year survival rates can be upto 40%. In the presence of extensive disease or if the affected person is not fit enough to undergo surgery, palliative care is often recommended. Outcomes are related to the extent of the disease and other medical conditions, The modern approch to advanced cancer is to put the self expanding metallic stent by endoscope which definitely solves the problem of dysphagia & particularly blessings for the patients suffering from tracheoesophageal fistula where in past they were miserable from aspiration pneumonitis & intractable cough. Some rare form of treatments are: Laser therapy is the use of high-intensity light to destroy tumor cells; it affects only the treated area. This is typically done if the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. The relief of a blockage can help to reduce dysphagia and pain. Photodynamic therapy, a type of laser therapy, involves the use of drugs that are absorbed by cancer cells; when exposed to a special light, the drugs become active and destroy the cancer cells. Radiofrequency ablation is a new treatment modality for the treatment of Barrett's esophagus and dysplasia, and has been the subject of numerous published clinical trials. Prevention includes avoiding tobacco & alcohol.
