A 69-year-old woman had undergone a subtotal esophagectomy for basaloid-squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus 2 years before (pT3, ly1, v2, pN0, pStage II). Right lung metastasis was detected by follow up chest computed tomography( CT). A partial resection of the right lung was performed. Histopathological diagnosis was basaloid-squamous cell carcinoma. She is doing well 17 months after surgery for metastasis.To our knowledge, no case of radical surgery for the lung metastasis of basaloid-squamous cell carcinoma has not been reported in the Japanese literature to date.
