Abstract:
A 56-year-old man with primary esophageal lymphoma is presented. Diagnosis of this disease can present a challenge. Clinical characteristics, treatment principles, and a detailed discussion of diagnosis are presented. When primary esophageal lymphoma is diagnosed, combination chemotherapy and radiotherapy afford a significant chance of long-term survival.
