Esophageal squamos cell carcinoma Feb 6, 2005
Patient with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma located at 32 cm distance from the incisors. Linear EUS demonstrated an inhomogenous, hypoechogenic tumor (blue arrows), with disruption of the normal three-layer structure of the esophageal wall and invasion of the adventitia (T3). An enlarged oval lymphnode (red arrowheads) of 11 mm was seen adjacent to the tumor (N1).
 

Esophageal adenocarcinoma Feb 6, 2005
Patient with esophageal adenocarcinoma located at 35 cm distance from the incisors. Linear EUS demonstrated an inhomogenous, hypoechogenic tumor, with disruption of the normal three-layer structure of the esophageal wall and invasion of the aorta (T4 carcinoma).
 

Esophageal squamos cell carcinoma Feb 6, 2005
Patient with stenosing esophageal squamos cell carcinoma located at 30 cm distance from the incisors. Linear EUS demonstrated an inhomogenous, hypoechogenic tumor, with disruption of the normal three-layer structure of the esophageal wall and invasion of the left atrium (T4 carcinoma).
