Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is recognized as one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide. The disease's tendency to quickly metastasize precludes many patients from receiving curative therapy. The most common sites of distal metastases include the liver, lungs, bones, and brain. We report a case of ESCC metastasizing to the rectosigmoid region years after treatment with neoadjuvant chemoradiation and esophagectomy. To our knowledge, only a handful of cases of ESCC with colonic metastases have been previously documented.
食管鳞状细胞癌(ESCC)被认为是全球最致命的恶性肿瘤之一。该疾病易于快速转移,这使得许多患者无法接受根治性治疗。远处转移最常见的部位包括肝脏、肺、骨骼和大脑。我们报告了一例经新辅助放化疗和食管切除术后数年发生ESCC转移至直肠乙状结肠区域的病例。据我们所知,此前仅有少数ESCC发生结肠转移的病例被记录在案。
