Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus: a case report with immunohistochemical and molecular genetic analyses of KIT and PDGFRA.

Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England) - 1 Jun 2011

Terada Tadashi

Abstract excerpt

Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus including small-cell carcinoma and large-cell carcinoma is a very rare entity. The author herein reports a neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus with an emphasis on KIT and PDGFRA. An 81-year-old man presented as dysphagia. An endoscopic examination revealed an ulcerated large tumor in the middle esophagus. A biopsy of the esophageal tumor identified an...
