Firstly, tissue samples after endoscopic treatment (endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection) for squamous intraepithelial neoplasia and early squamous cell carcinoma will be analyzed with the use of the next-generation sequencing to identify potential diagnostic biomarkers. Afterward, patients with- and at risk- of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma will be recruited to undergo a diagnostic endoscopy with biopsies (the gold standard) and Cytosponge procedure.
