The prognosis of esophageal cancer is quite poor. Even in patients who undergo surgery with curative intent, the five year survival rate is only 25%. The prognosis is even more dismal in those who are not fit for surgery.

5-Year Survival

  • Between 2004 and 2010, the 5 year relative survival of patients with esophageal cancer was 20 %.[1]
  • When stratified by age, the 5 year relative survival of patients with esophageal cancer was 19.8 % and 15.5 % for patients <65 and ≥ 65 years of age respectively.[1]
  • The survival of patients with esophageal cancer varies with the stage of the disease. Shown below is a table depicting the 5 year relative survival by the stage of esophageal cancer:[1]
Stage 5 year relative survival (%), (Insert range of years here)
All stages 17.5%
Localized 39.6%
Regional 21.1%
Distant 3.8%
Unstaged 11.5%

Shown below is an image depicting 5 year conditional relative survival (probability of surviving in the next 5 years given the cohort has already survived 0, 1, 3 years) by stage at diagnosis according to SEER.[1]
