Introducción:

El carcinoma epidermoide constituye la variedad más frecuente de cáncer esofágico. Se considera poco frecuente en la práctica clínica y su evolución es muy agresiva.

Objetivo:

Describir las manifestaciones clínicas y diagnóstico de un paciente con carcinoma epidermoide de esófago.

Caso clínico:

Paciente masculino de 46 años de edad, que comenzó con fiebre, tos y disfonía; apareció disfagia 20 días después. Se identificó un tumor por exámenes imagenológicos y se indicó biopsia con toma de muestra, mediante endoscopia superior, de manera que se confirmó la enfermedad.

Conclusiones:

El cáncer esofágico es una entidad infrecuente. Su síntoma cardinal, la disfagia, no se evidencia al inicio de la enfermedad y su diagnóstico se realiza a través de estudios imagenológicos e histológicos.
