Brain metastasis from esophageal carcinoma
Agrawal, Rashi; Shukla, Prity; Shukla, Vikas & Chauhan, Arvind
Abstract
Esophageal carcinoma rarely metastasizes to brain. In our center, among 504 cases of esophageal cancer registered for treatment during a 15-year (1990-2005) period, brain metastasis from esophageal carcinoma was detected in only 1 case. An unusual case of esophageal carcinoma that presented with brain metastasis is reported here.
Keywords
