ABSTRACT
Metastatic cancer to the esophagus is unusual. Breast cancer represents one of the most frequent solid tumors metastasizing to the esophagus. Less than 100 histologically confirmed cases were reported up to now. By suggestion of Laforet the entity of postmastectomy-dysphagia was inaugurated as a syndrome, characterized by dysphagia, occurring many years after mastectomy due to metastatic breast cancer. Surgical therapy by means of esophagectomy and esophagogastrostomy is a safe procedure and can provide a survival time of several years in combination with other therapies due to reliable palliation.
