RESUMO
Epiphrenic diverticulum(traction type) is such a rare disease. The case of this disease which is due to mediastinal tumor, not because of inflammatory adhesion or of motor disorder is especially hard to find. The patient was a 50-year-old male and admitted with the intermittent postprandial chest discomfort. The chest CT and esophagography showed epiphrenic diverticulum(traction type). The tumor was located at the left anterolateral of thoracic spine, adhered to the right wall of esophagus. We performed the diverticulectomy and extirpation of mediastinal tumor under left posterolateral thoracotomy. The tumor and the esophagus were well seperated without invasion to the esophagus. In the pathology of resected tissues, solitary neurofibroma was diagnosed. There was no complication or recurrence after surgical resection.

Primary extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma(SCC) is appearing with increased frequency in the literature. These tumors have been described in the esophagus, stomach, pancreas, larynx, hypopharynx, salivary gland, nasal cavity & paranasal sinus, thymus, small & large bowel, uterine cervix, endometrium, breast, prostate, urinary bladder and skin. Small cell carcinoma of the stomach is extremely rare and a total 9 cases have been reported in the English literature. Like SCC in the lung, SCC in the alimentary tract has a aggresive behavior and prognosis of the patient is poor. We are reported a case of advanced gastric cancer diagnosed as small cell type by endoscopic biopsy. Grossly, the lesion of small cell carcinoma of the stomach, located in the upper body and gastric angle, is ulcerated with irregular margin and dirty surface covered with blodd clots and exudates.
