Increasing cases of Barrett’s-associated cancer and cancer of the cardia

The answer is not known. An increasing frequency of esophageal adenocarcinoma has been observed for at least 20 years, primarily in white males. One clue to the reason for this trend may be related to a decrease in the frequency of H. pylori infections of the stomach. In other words, people with Barrett’s cancer, including cardia cancer, seem to have lower rates of H. pylori infection than others of the same age and sex in the same population.

H. pylori is the bacterium that is the major cause of ulcers. It is a very common infection worldwide and causes no symptoms in the vast majority of affected people. However, about 10% of persons with H. pylori develop peptic ulcers of the stomach and duodenum. These ulcers are treated by eliminating the bacteria, which eradication, in turn, prevents a relapse of the ulcers.
