dc.description.abstractBackground: A 48-year-old Chinese woman presented with a 2-month history of progressive dysphagia for solids, and (less frequently) liquids. She had minimal weight loss and no family history of cancer. Investigations: Physical examination, conventional esophagogastroduodenoscopy, CT, fluorodeoxyglucose-PET, endoscopic ultrasonography, and histopathologic examination of excised tumor and biopsy specimens. Diagnosis: Primary malignant esophageal melanoma with submucosal infiltration but no distant metastasis. Management: Endoscopic polypectomy followed by near-total esophagectomy with esophagogastric anastomosis.
