CA esophagus







chest x ray shows athickening of mediastinum and a dilated esophagus...needed lateral view but not available..
patient's CT chest was done,
CT scan Axial cuts show esophageal mass at the level just below the carina and obliterating the esophageal lumen.The mass extended downwards to involve the lower esophagus.proximal to the mass,esophagus showed dialted esophagus and an air-fluid level
possibility of CA esophagus could not be excluded...
