| Summary, etc. | This book is intended to be used by physicians, patients, and translational research<br/>scientists as an easy-to-use practical guide when dealing with gastric cardiac<br/>cancer.<br/>Gastric cardiac cancer arises in cardiac mucosa located primarily in the proximal<br/>stomach and occasionally invading into the distal esophagus. In recent years, this<br/>poorly understood cancer has been the focus of intense investigation on mechanisms of pathogenesis, genomic profile, classification, diagnosis, prognosis, staging, and clinical management. As such, a growing body of high-quality evidence has<br/>been accumulated for better clinical management. It is time for a specialized, concise reference on this cancer for clinicians and patients alike.<br/>Because of uncertainty in tumorigenesis mechanisms, there are no universally<br/>accepted clinical practice guidelines on gastric cardiac cancer. The best clinical<br/>management strategy, we believe, is a multidisciplinary approach, including a team<br/>of healthcare subspecialists in gastroenterology, pathology, radiology, abdominal<br/>surgery, thoracic surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, and palliative care.<br/>The pertinent essential information on gastric cardiac cancer in these medical fields<br/>is included in this book. The manner of presentation of the information in this book<br/>will, we hope, help the reader to quickly master the essential characteristics of this<br/>cancer as described and illustrated with numerous endoscopic, gross, and microscopic photographs, and drawings. We hope this book will facilitate efficient communication and the decision-making process by the multidisciplinary team for<br/>appropriate patient triage and treatment.<br/>A plain, simple language, without medical jargon, is utilized throughout the<br/>book so that patients and their family members and friends may find the materials<br/>presented understandable and useful when they face the challenge of this potentially<br/>fatal cancer. |
