چکیده
A 55-year-old man with esophageal carcinoma received endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in en-bloc resection. Histopathological examination revealed an admixture of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and endocrine cell carcinoma (ECC) with invasion of the deep submucosa. Immunohistochemically, CD 56 and chromogranin A were positive for ECC. Small-cell, medium-cell, and large-cell type ECC were partly surrounded with SCC and partly formed the duct, presenting various patterns. After ESD, he received chemotherapy including CPT-11 plus Cisplatin. He is alive and in good condition today, 55 months after ESD, with no evidence of recurrence.

Endoscopic submucosal dissection for an atypical small verrucous carcinoma: a case report
BACKGROUND Esophageal verrucous carcinoma is a rare variant of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. In most cases, verrucous carcinoma presents as an exophytic, slow-growing mass with an extensive superficial growth pattern. Symptoms often include an insidious onset of dysphagia resulting in weight loss. In a patient presenting with super early-stage verrucous carcinoma, we were able to eliminat...
متن کاملCombination Therapy After EMR/ESD for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Submucosal Invasion
Recently, nonoperative treatment such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy has commonly been performed for submucosal carcinoma of the esophagus. Although endoscopic mucosal resection1)2) (EMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection3) (ESD) is usually done as curative treatment for mucosal cancer of the esophagus, the efficacy of multimodal therapy combined with EMR/ESD for esophageal squamous cell car...
متن کاملNovel diagnostic methods for early-stage squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal successfully resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection.
noma (ACSCC) is quite rare, it can be recognized clearly using iodine staining [1]. Early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has recently been diagnosed using both narrow-band imaging (NBI) [2] and autofluorescence imaging (AFI) [3]. Here we report on the first case of earlystage ACSCC diagnosed by NBI and AFI and treated successfully by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). A 70-...
متن کاملA case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the esophagus
Esophageal adenoid cystic carcinoma (EACC) is a very rare form of malignant tumor in the esophagus. Here, we report the case of a 78-year-old man who was diagnosed with EACC by preoperative endoscopic biopsy. Thoracoscopy-assisted subtotal esophagectomy with lymph node dissection was carried out. Microscopic examination of the resected specimen suggested that the tumor invaded to submucosal lay...
متن کاملCombination of concurrent endoscopic submucosal dissection and modified peroral endoscopic myotomy for an achalasia patient with synchronous early esophageal neoplasms
Achalasia is generally accepted as a condition associated with an increased risk for developing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. In our paper, we introduced an achalasia patient combined with synchronous early esophageal neoplasms. We performed a combination of concurrent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). No complications other than postoperative p...
