title: [Esophagus carcinoid--a rare differential diagnosis in malignant esophageal neoplasia].
abstract: Two of patients with a carcinoid tumor of the esophagus are reported, an extremely rare localisation. Eight months after esophagectomy the 50-year-old male is entirely well and without any sign of recurrence; the 56-year-old female has died in this time. Our two cases are discussed in comparison with seven cases found in the literature.
