A Case of Superficial Primary Malignant Melanoma of the Esophagus Detected and Treated at Stage 0
Intern Med. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.2454-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe patient was a 79-year-old male. At three years and eight months after his initial presentation, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a black-flattened elevated lesion in the middle third of the esophagus, which was diagnosed as malignant melanoma on biopsy. No lymph node or distant metastasis was found. A diagnosis of cT1bN0M0 Stage I was thus made. We performed a robot-assisted, minimally invasive esophagectomy and D2 dissection. The postoperative diagnosis was pT1a (MM), N0, M0, vascular invasion+, stage 0. The patient ...

Comparison of the Clinical Outcomes of Esophagectomy and Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Patients with Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
CONCLUSIONS: These results showed no significant difference in survival between the definitive CCRT and surgery as the initial treatment. Nevertheless, larger prospective studies will be needed because of the retrospective nature and small number of patients in this study.PMID:38522853 | DOI:10.4166/kjg.2023.100 (Source: Korean J Gastroenter...)
