MEC is commonly characterized by squamous cells, mucus-secreting cells, and intermediate cells. This report presents the case of a 57-years-old male with a three months history of cough and shortness of breath. Computer tomography (CT) scans revealed a tumor locating in the left hilar. The histological report was squamous carcinoma. After three circles of chemotherapy, the patient complained of dysphagia. The electronic gastroscope showed a protrusion which 30-34 cm from the incisors. The tumor was histopathologically determined to be MEC of esophagus. The patient refused to surgery and concurrent chemoradiotheray; so, radiotherapy and sequential chemotherapy were performed, and after one year of follow up, the disease of esophagus recurrence; the patient was died of hemorrhage of esophagus for tumor progression. The literatures of MEC are also reviewed in this study.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0973-1482.140986","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,10,9]],"date-time":"2015-10-09T11:54:49Z","timestamp":1444391689000},"page":"658","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of esophagus combined with squamous carcinoma of lung"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Chaoxing","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yahong","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weiwei","family":"Chu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Futong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhenping","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-91-20231126","first-page":"2011","article-title":"The clinical histopathological character of muco-epidermoid carcinoma of the oesophagus and a literature review","volume":"12","author":"Liang","year":"2010","journal-title":"Chinese J Lab Diag"},{"key":"R2-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"416","DOI":"10.1080\/00015458.2009.11680452","article-title":"Muco-epidermoid carcinoma of the oesophagus: A case report","volume":"109","author":"Turkyilmaz","year":"2009","journal-title":"Acta Chir Belg"},{"key":"R3-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1426","DOI":"10.1097\/JTO.0b013e31821cfb96","article-title":"Primary mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the esophagus","volume":"6","author":"Chen","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Thorac Oncol"},{"key":"R4-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"140","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2007-1012820","article-title":"Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the esophagus: Report of two cases and review of the literature","volume":"22","author":"Sasajima","year":"1990","journal-title":"Endoscopy"},{"key":"R5-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"86","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02471574","article-title":"Two cases of resected esophageal mucoepidermoid carcinoma","volume":"19","author":"Ozawa","year":"1989","journal-title":"Jpn J Surg"},{"key":"R6-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"54","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1096-9098(199905)71:1<54::AID-JSO11>3.0.CO;2-M","article-title":"Esophageal mucoepidermoid carcinoma containing signet-ring cells: Three case reports and a literature review","volume":"71","author":"Matsuki","year":"1999","journal-title":"J Surg Oncol"},{"key":"R7-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"55","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02469858","article-title":"Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the esophagus: A case report","volume":"15","author":"Matsufuji","year":"1985","journal-title":"Jpn J Surg"},{"key":"R8-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"86","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02471574","article-title":"Two cases of resected esophageal mucoepidermoid carcinoma","volume":"19","author":"Ozawa","year":"1989","journal-title":"Jpn J Surg"},{"key":"R9-91-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"586","DOI":"10.4103\/0973-1482.106550","article-title":"Immunohistochemical correlation of epidermal growth factor receptor and c-erbB-2 with histopathologic grading of mucoepidermoid carcinoma","volume":"8","author":"Khiavi","year":"2012","journal-title":"J Cancer Res Ther"}],"container-title":["Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/01363817-201511030-00091","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T16:51:18Z","timestamp":1787763078000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/01363817-201511030-00091"}},"subtitle":["A case report and literature review"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2015]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/0973-1482.140986","relation":{},"ISSN":["0973-1482"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0973-1482","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015]]}}}
