case_images: An esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a polypoid ulcerated lesion of the distal esophagus at 31-37 cm from the incisors, ulcerated and suspicion of Barrett's esophagus (Figure 1).

case_images: The patient was scheduled for a minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy with celiac and mediastinal lymphadenectomy, and intrathoracic anastomosis (Figure 2).
case_images: (A) Microscopic findings of the tumor at 5x magnification. Anaplastic large cells showing solid growth pattern and poorly cohesive growth. (B) Higher magnification (20x) view of the solid growth area. White box underlines at 100x magnification tumor cells exhibiting large nuclei with conspicuous nucleoli and eosinophilic "rhabdoid" cytoplasmic inclusions, while the nucleus is displaced eccentrically by the cytoplasmic inclusion body.
