Esophageal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death and is associated with high morbidity and mortality.It carries a poor prognosis as more than half of patients present with advanced and unresectable disease.One contributing factor is the increased risk of lymph node metastases at early stages of disease.As such,it is essential to detect squamous cell neoplasia (SCN) at an early stage.In order to risk stratify lesions,endoscopists must be able to perform image enhanced endoscopy including magnification and Lugol’s chromoendoscopy.The assessment of both the horizontal extent and depth of any lesion is also of utmost importance prior to treatment.Endoscopic mucosal resection and submucosal dissection remain the standard of care with literature supportive their respective use.Radiofrequency ablation and other endoscopic treatments are currently available although should not be considered first line at this time.Our objective is to review the current options for the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of esophageal SCN.
