Prospective comparison of endosonography, computed tomography, and histopathological stage of junctional oesophagogastric cancer

Siewert II tumour T and N stages were more accurately predicted by EUS than CT, but Siewert III tumour T and N stages were more difficult to assess, arguably because of anatomical constraints at the oesophagogastric junction. CT and EUS are complimentary techniques, and these results highlight the importance of multidisciplinary discussion in planning treatment.
