ABSTRACT
The coexistence of mesenchymal tumor and carcinoma in the esophagus is extremely rare. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma located at the mucosal surface over leiomyoma of the esophagus. A 76-year-old man with complaints of 3 months onset of odynophagia was diagnosed preoperatively as squamous cell carcinoma over submucosal tumor with calcification. Esophagectomy and esophagogastrostomy were performed through the right thoracotomy and upper median laparotomy. The patient is doing well without evidence of recurrence in the 25 months after resection. We discuss the pathogenesis and possible relations between the two tumors.
