M Vandewoude1, A Cornelis, D Wyndaele, C Brussaard, R Kums.   

Abstract

Primary malignant melanoma of the oesophagus is a rare disease, only 262 cases being reported up to June 2005. In general, the prognosis is dismal because of its tendency to present as an advanced neoplasm with aggressive biological behaviour. (18)FDG-PET-scan is a useful tool for evaluation of metastatic disease and locoregional lymph node metastasis. We present herein a case of a young adult with primary malignant melanoma of the oesophagus, followed by a literature review on the subject.
