A CASE OF SUPERFICIAL ESOPHAGEAL ADENOCARCINOMA RESECTED BY ENDOSCOPIC SUBMUCOSAL DISSECTION

Abstract

A follow-up esophagogastroduodenoscopy was performed in an 85-year-old man after endoscopic mucosal resection of early gastric cancer. Irregular red depressed lesions were observed in the esophagus and were confirmed to be adenocarcinoma in the biopsy., and Afterwards, an Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection was performed. The pathology result was Lt, 0-IIc, adenocarcinoma, pT1a-MM, ly0, v0, pHM0, pVM0, stage 0. Since this lesion is not the commonly observed Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma, this is a rare case.
