The authors present an unusual case of small-cell carcinoma of the esophagus, which manifested on double-contrast esophagography as an ulcerated submucosal mass. The lesion underwent dramatic regression after combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy, which has occasionally been used as an alternative to surgery in patients with this rare but aggressive esophageal neoplasm.
作者报告了一例罕见的食管小细胞癌病例，在双重对比食管造影中表现为溃疡性黏膜下肿块。该病变在联合化疗和放疗后显著消退，对于这种罕见但侵袭性强的食管肿瘤患者，联合放化疗偶尔可作为手术的替代治疗方法。
