ABSTRACT
A 14 year old boy with well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the upper oesophagus is being presented because of its rarity. The patient presented with dysphagia for 8 months. Barium swallow and endoscopy revealed a narrowing in the upper oesophagus with a proximal dilatation diverticulum. No definite aetiologic factor could be demonstrated. The case was treated with definitive irradiation with excellent immediate response.
