Jean Francois Lecompte et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 2012 Jun.

Abstract

Esophageal duplication is a rare congenital malformation containing different types of tissues. We report the case of a woman with a large mediastinal tumor. After surgical resection, histologic examination showed pancreatic adenocarcinoma arising from esophageal duplication. Adjuvant chemotherapy was given briefly afterward.
