  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 A 49-year-old male had complained of dysphagia for the 30 years preceding admission. In another hospital, he was diagnosed as having esophageal achalasia by upper gastrointestinal barium examination in 1965, but no treatment had been carried out. He was admitted to our hospital in 1994, after having caught a cold. Because of an increase of his complication, such as poor appetite, nausea and vomiting. Esophagogram showed a markedly dilated sigmoid-shaped esophagus with persistent barium retention. Endoscopic balloon dilation therapy was carried out four times for achalasia. After these therapies, endoscopic examination indicated a reddish shallow depressed lesion in the upper esophagus, which was unstained by iodine, and compatible with this lesion as esophageal carcinoma concomitant with achalasia. Squamous cell carcinoma was found in the pathological examination of the endoscopic biopsy specimens from this lesion. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was performed for the area unstained by iodine. Pathological examination of resected specimens revealed also squamous cell carcinoma in the lamina propia mucosae (m1). After 15 months, follow-up endoscopy was performed and squamous cell carcinoma was found in the pathological examination of endoscopic biopsy specimens from scar lesion. Laser therapy was performed for this lesion. After another two years, an, endoscopic biopsy specimen showed atypical cells. Laser therapy was performed again for the same esophageal lesion. We would like to emphasize the usefulness of EMR and laser therapy for early esophageal carcinoma, and stress the importance of careful long-term follow-up endoscopy for achalasia.
