<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the histopathological features of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, and to explore the ways of its diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data and pathological features of 23 cases of esophageal basaloid squamous cell carcinoma were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The tumors were mainly located at the middle third segment of the esophagus. The 1-,2- and 3-year survival rates were 60.9%, 21.7% and 0, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus is highly malignant with poor prognosis.
