Ukusetshenziswa kukagwayi kukuchaya kuma-pathologies amaningi futhi kwaziwa njengento ebhebhethekisa kakhulu imidlavuza eminingi, okuhlanganisa nomdlavuza womminzo, phakathi kokunye. Kodwa yiziphi izimpawu endabeni yomdlavuza womminzo okungenzeka ukuthi ubangelwa ugwayi? Yini enye ebangela izimila zomphimbo?
UGWABA NOMDLAVUZA WOMTHETHO
U-90% womdlavuza womminzo ubangelwa ukuphuza ngokweqile nogwayi. Ithinta kakhulu amadoda angaphezu kweminyaka engama-55 ubudala. Ngempela, i-squamous cell carcinomas ekhula odongeni lwangaphakathi lomminzo futhi emele u-65% wezimila zomphimbo ibangelwa kakhulu ukucasuka okuphindaphindiwe okubangelwa ubuthi obukhona entuthuni kagwayi. Ngokufanayo, ukuhlaselwa okuphindaphindiwe kwe-esophagus engezansi kunesibopho se-adenocarcinomas ekhula engxenyeni yayo engezansi. Ngaphezu kwalokho, siyazi ukuthi ukuphuza noma ukubhema kuvame ukuveza lesi sitho ngemithamo ebalulekile ye-acetaldehyde, ikhemikhali ye-carcinogenic.
Uphawu oluyinhloko olubangelwa ukusetshenziswa kukagwayi notshwala futhi okufanele likuxwayise ngomdlavuza we-esophageal i-dysphagia, okungukuthi ukungakhululeki lapho ugwinya. Kufanele kuholele ekubonisaneni lapho isanda kuvela futhi ithuthuka ngokushesha. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ingozi yokuba nomdlavuza womminzo izoncipha kancane kancane uma uyeka ukubhema. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuyeka ukuphuza utshwala nokusebenzisa indlela yokuphila enempilo kunciphisa kakhulu ingozi yokuba nalolu hlobo lomdlavuza.
