Abstract

Primary upper gastrointestinal tract melanoma is a rare but well recognised entity, with a poor prognosis because of delay in diagnosis. Furthermore, it may be difficult to determine whether a gastrointestinal melanoma represents a metastasis or a primary tumour. We report a 67-year-old man with a primary oesophageal melanoma, treated with surgical resection, who remains disease-free two years post resection.

摘要

原发性上消化道黑色素瘤是一种罕见但已被充分认识的疾病，由于诊断延迟，其预后较差。此外，可能难以确定胃肠道黑色素瘤是转移瘤还是原发性肿瘤。我们报告一名67岁患有原发性食管黑色素瘤的男性，接受了手术切除治疗，术后两年无疾病复发。
