A case of adenosquamous carcinoma of the esophagus is presented. This carcinoma is a typical neoplasm of the upper aerodigestive tract almost exclusively originating in squamous epithelium in continuity with minor salivary glands. It is a very rare tumor in the esophagus, and is often diagnosed as mucoepidermoid carcinoma. The differential diagnosis between them is important due to the better prognosis of the last entity. The histology and electron microscopy is described and the literature is reviewed.
本文报告一例食管腺鳞癌病例。这种癌是上消化道的一种典型肿瘤,几乎完全起源于与小唾液腺相连的鳞状上皮。它在食管中是一种非常罕见的肿瘤,常被诊断为黏液表皮样癌。由于后者预后较好,因此两者之间的鉴别诊断很重要。本文描述了其组织学和电子显微镜检查结果,并对相关文献进行了综述。
