Esophageal cancer can be treated with surgery as long as no metastasis to other organs occur In the reported case, tests are made according to the procedure; according to the pathology and staging it is considered end-stage, stent inserted to the patient for palliation, neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy are recommended.
