Zusammenfassung
Im Verlauf der Erkrankungen von Krebspatienten gibt es Zeitpunkte, an denen verschiedene Tumorklassifikationen erstellt werden müssen. Diese Klassifikationen erfüllen unterschiedliche Zwecke, von denen besonders die Wahl der Therapie und die Vorhersage der Prognose wichtig sind. Vielfältige Erfahrungen haben gezeigt, dass bei der Anwendung von Tumorklassifikationen zahlreiche Probleme auftreten können, die zu Konsequenzen bei den betroffenen Patienten führen können, auch bei Patienten mit Ösophaguskarzinomen und Adenokarzinomen des ösophagogastralen Übergangs (AEG).
Abstract
During the course of a malignant disease, the tumor needs to be classified repeatedly in order to facilitate decision-making in treatment and to estimate patients prognosis; however, a wrong classification of tumors can occur in different stages of the disease course with tremendous consequences for the affected patients. This review discusses the possible misclassifications which can occur in patients with esophageal cancer or adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ), along with the consequences.
