Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) in the esophagus is extremely rare. Therefore, there are few reports of UPS in the esophagus (UPSE). We present a case of UPSE after multiple cancer treatments.
A 73-year-old man with a history of cancer treatment, including distal gastrectomy, transverse colectomy, and chemoradiotherapy, was diagnosed with an elevated lesion such as a submucosal tumor in the lower esophagus by regular endoscopy. A boring biopsy was performed, and the specimen showed features of sarcoma. The patient underwent a partial esophagectomy without lymph node dissection. Histopathological findings confirmed an undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma. Adjuvant therapy was not administered, and the patient survived without recurrence 1 year after surgery.
Currently, complete resection is the only treatment option for UPSE. An optimal treatment strategy using chemotherapy or radiotherapy should be established.
食管未分化多形性肉瘤(UPS)极为罕见。因此,关于食管未分化多形性肉瘤(UPSE)的报道很少。我们报告一例多次癌症治疗后发生的UPSE病例。
一名73岁男性,有癌症治疗史,包括远端胃切除术、横结肠切除术和放化疗,通过定期内镜检查诊断为食管下段有一个隆起性病变,如黏膜下肿瘤。进行了钻取活检,标本显示为肉瘤特征。患者接受了部分食管切除术,未进行淋巴结清扫。组织病理学检查结果证实为未分化多形性肉瘤。未给予辅助治疗,患者术后1年存活且无复发。
目前,完整切除是UPSE的唯一治疗选择。应制定使用化疗或放疗的最佳治疗策略。
