ABSTRACT
A 68-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of back pain during swallowing. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a lower esophageal type 3 tumor. The patient was diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by the biopsy specimen. CT scan showed thoracic lower esophagus wall thickening, left paracardiac lymph node swelling, and a low-density area in the liver. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with Stage â
£b esophageal cancer. After introducing cisplatin plus 5-FU combination therapy, the liver metastasis disappeared. After 9 chemotherapy courses, the patient received radical chemoradiotherapy. After completing chemoradiotherapy, the patient was followed up without any treatment. After 3 years since the treatment initiation, the patient is surviving without any relapse.
