Excerpt

Tumor metastasis to the esophagus is a rare occurrence. The incidence of metastasis in esophagus in malignant esophageal disease is approximately 2.7 to 7.4% [1, 2]. Most of the patients present with dysphagia and loss of weight. The clinical and radiological findings are similar to primary esophageal cancer. Histopathologically, it can be differentiated from primary and secondary malignancy. We present a rare case report of esophageal metastasis from breast cancer after a 15-year disease-free interval. We review here the characteristics of diagnostics and therapeutics for metastatic esophageal tumor, particularly from primary breast cancer. …
