Esophageal adenocarcinoma: pseudo-nutcracker esophagus.

Adeyemi Lawal1, Stephen Antonik, Kulwinder Dua, Benson T Massey.   

Abstract

Pseudoachalasia due to adenocarcinoma is well known. We report a case of nutcracker esophagus in the setting of outflow obstruction from esophageal adenocarcinoma. Endoscopy is warranted to exclude similar lesions in patients with "pseudo-nutcracker esophagus".
