A 63-year-old man was admitted to our institution with a hard tumor on the left side of the neck. He was diagnosed as having advanced esophageal cancer (Stage IV) with a massive supraclavicular lymph node metastasis, and the lesion was thought to be unresectable. He was treated with chemotherapy (CDDP-VDS-5-FU) and radiation therapy, and all the tumors completely disappeared on endoscopic and CT examination. A stricture with scarring was detected in the esophagus at 6 months after treatment. No neoplastic tissue was detected in the lesion, and his dysphagia was relieved by dilation of the stricture. Recurrence on the left side of the neck was detected by CT at 2.5 years after chemoradiation therapy. However, the tumor has not grown over the 2-year interval since then, so it seems to be dormant. He has now survived with a good QOL for 5 years since the first hospital admission. We conclude that advanced esophageal cancer can be treated with chemoradiation therapy if the patient is in sufficiently good overall condition.
