The incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma has been increasing compared with squamous cell carcinoma. The most common location of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus is the distal one third. Cancer developing in an esophageal diverticulum is uncommon, but tumors of squamous cell origin in esophageal diverticula have been reported previously. We describe an adenocarcinoma in a midesophageal diverticulum and review malignancies occurring in esophageal diverticula.
与鳞状细胞癌相比,食管腺癌的发病率一直在上升。食管腺癌最常见的部位是远端三分之一处。在食管憩室中发生的癌症并不常见,但此前已有关于食管憩室中鳞状细胞起源肿瘤的报道。我们描述了一例发生在食管中段憩室的腺癌,并对食管憩室中发生的恶性肿瘤进行综述。
