A tale of two cities--oesophageal cancer in Malawi and Scotland.

Tom Crofts1.   

Abstract

The high incidence of oesophageal cancer in both Scotland and Malawi can be attributed to a combination of environmental and lifestyle factors. The aim of this study is to give a perspective on the comparative epidemiology of oesophageal cancer in these two very different populations (Blantyre, Malawi and Aberdeen, Scotland).
