Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

There is an established link between sarcopenia and outcomes in oesophageal cancer. There is scant reports in the literature regarding the influences of different obesity in different compartments.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Oesophageal cancer rates are increasing as a result of obesity in Western society. Thr investigators are evaluating the influence of viscerala dn subcutaneous obesity on overall outcomes of the participants. In addition the investigators are evaluating if there is a correlation with Liver Function Tests and liver histopathology such as steatosis on survival in participants and post operative sequele.
