    AbstractNumerous studies related to esophagogastric junction cancer (EGC) have been published, and bibliometric analysis of these publications may be able to identify research hotspots and frontiers of EGC. Studies published on EGC between 2002 and 2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. The collaboration network of countries/regions, institutions, authors, co-citation network of journals, co-occurrence network, and overlay visualization of keywords were analyzed using the VOSviewer software. Cluster and timeline analyses of references were performed using the CiteSpace software. A total of 5109 English articles were published across 691 journals by authors affiliated with 4727 institutions from 81 countries/regions. The annual number of publications related to EGC research has exhibited an increasing trend. The United States, China, and Japan emerged as the top 3 prolific countries/regions. Institutions in the United States, Japan, and South Korea exhibited significant collaboration with one another. Diseases of the Esophagus was the most prolific journal, and Annals of Surgical Oncology, World Journal of Gastroenterology, and Gastric Cancer had also published more than 100 studies. Jaffer A Ajani was the most productive author while David Cunningham ranked the first in terms of total citations and average citations per article. Barrett's esophagus, gastroesophageal reflux disease, Helicobacter pylori, and obesity were common topics in earlier research, and recent years had seen a shift towards the topics of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In conclusion, growing attention is paid to EGC research, especially in terms of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s).
