Subsequent CT shows some circumferential thickening of the distal esophagus and bulky mediastinal lymph nodes but no distant metastases.
Case Discussion
Patient referred for gastroscopy and esophageal biopsy.
Histopathology: Poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the esophagus.
In the context of the hiatus hernia and reflux, this is likely a consequence of Barrett esophagus.
