Abstract

We encountered an esophageal cancer (mp) with a marked cauliflower like tumor. A 69-year-old female was admitted to our associated hospital with complaints of heartburn and anterior chest pain. An upper GI series revealed a huge filling defect, 9.5cm in the major axis, in the middle esophagus. Endoscopic findings showed profuse bleading on the surface of the tumor. Biopsy findings from the polypoid lesion indicated well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Histological examination of a resected specimen, 8.0×5.0 cm showed that cancer invasion was limited to the mucosa in the major part of the cauliflower like tumor, and to sm and mp only in a small part of the base of the tumor. No vessel invasion or lymph node metastasis were observed.
