Esophageal cancer is a serious condition where malignant cells develop in the lining of the esophagus, the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach. It can cause progressive difficulty in swallowing and, if left untreated, may spread to nearby organs. Esophageal cancer treatment in Indore focuses on accurate staging, timely surgery, and multidisciplinary care to improve survival and quality of life. Dr. Kripa Shankar Tiwari specializes in advanced minimally invasive and open surgeries for esophageal cancer with a strong focus on precision and recovery.
Common symptoms include difficulty swallowing (initially for solids and later for liquids), unexplained weight loss, chest pain, hoarseness, chronic cough, and regurgitation. Risk factors include chronic acid reflux (GERD), Barrett’s esophagus, smoking, alcohol consumption, poor diet, obesity, and a history of esophageal injury or strictures.
Dr. Kripa Shankar Tiwari provides a comprehensive treatment approach, starting with diagnostic tests like endoscopy, biopsy, CT scans, and staging laparoscopy. For resectable tumors, minimally invasive or open esophagectomy is performed to remove the cancer and nearby lymph nodes. Depending on the stage, surgery is combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy in collaboration with oncology specialists. Palliative procedures are also offered to improve swallowing and quality of life in advanced cases.
With expertise in gastrointestinal oncology and advanced esophageal surgery, Dr. Kripa Shankar Tiwari ensures safe, effective cancer removal and compassionate post-operative care for better outcomes.
