Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Esophagus With Liver Metastasis: A Case Report.

Mallorie Vest1, Deesha Shah1, Mahmoud Nassar1, Negar Niknam2.   

Abstract

Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the esophagus is a rare and aggressive malignancy. It is challenging to manage NEC due to its rarity. NEC may be asymptomatic or present with various symptoms such as dysphagia, abdominal discomfort, weight loss, melena, hot flushes, or diarrhea. We present the case of a 55-year-old male with a large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus. His aggressive and rapid progression of neuroendocrine carcinoma of the esophagus resulted in a poor clinical outcome.
