Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
He has esophageal cancer. Treatment depends on type, stage, location, grade and spread of cancer. In early stage laser treatment and surgical treatment is helpful. In advanced stage surgery is not helpful and chemotherapy and radiation therapy are the treatment options. Consult your oncologist and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
