Cachexia in patients with oesophageal cancer
Cachexia, a syndrome where metabolic demands cannot be met by energy intake, can substantially reduce the quality of life and increase mortality of patients with oesophageal cancer. In this Review, authors describe the causes, and effects of cachexia in these patients throughout the disease trajectory, and during the survivorship period; suggestions are made on how best to manage the effects of, and minimize the occurrence of this syndrome.
