Esophagogastric junction adenocarcinomas (EGJAs) include esophageal and gastric cardia adenocarcinomas (GCAs). These tumors are currently regarded as a single entity, with similar surgical and oncological therapies, although they originate from different organs. Endoscopy allows an early-stage diagnosis, where both subtypes can be differentiated. With this review we aimed to describe the outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection for the treatment of esophageal adenocarcinomas (EAs) and GCAs.
