The etiology of esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) in high prevalence regions of China remains unclear. Endoscopic biopsies were conducted among 7381 inhabitants aged from 25 to 65 of Anyang, China. In this study, 2.57, 0.20 and 0.16% of the participants had mild, moderate and severe squamous dysplasia, respectively; 0.19 and 0.08% showed squamous carcinoma in situ and invasive ESCC. Using deep well (depth >100 meters) as water source (odds ratio=0.72, 95% confidence interval: 0.54–0.96) was negatively associated with ESCC and its precursors, whereas tobacco and alcohol use were not significantly associated with ESCC. Water source and other factors in this region need further evaluation by longitudinal studies.
