Analysis of giant thoracic neoplasms: Correlations between imaging, pathology and surgical management.

abstract：:Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus is a rare malignant neoplasm with both epithelial and mesenchymal (sarcomatous) components. We describe a case of a 72-year-old man with a huge esophageal tumor which could often have been considered inoperable. However, the patient underwent a curative resection and had a good prognosi...
