Abstract
To determine the variation in occurrence of two major histological types of esophageal cancer stratified by various factors.
Patients & Methods: 122 cases were selected between June 2011 and June 2013, at Northwest General Hospital and Research Center (NWGH & RC) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The selected patients were either from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (26) or Afghanistan (96). The H&E stained slides were re-assessed microscopically. Types of carcinoma and demography of disease were evaluated. The variation in occurrence of the two subtypes of cancer was determined through multivariate analyses using morphology as dependent factor and gender, geographic area and anatomical location of the esophagus as independent factors.
