About
Screening esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD )provides three distinct opportunities to decrease gastric cancer (GC) morbidity and mortality. has potential to discover cancer in early stages before the onset of symptoms, leading to higher rates of survival. Second, premalignant lesions such as adenomatous polyps, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia can be discovered and removed with local resection, akin to polypectomies during screening colonoscopies, preventing the development of cancer. Third, EGD discovery and treatment of active Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection of the stomach provides an opportunity for primary prevention of GC.
