[Colon cancer: a rare complication in a colonic esophageal segment after coloesophagoplasty].
We report the case of a 65-year-old woman who presented to the Hermanos Ameijeiras Hospital in Cuba due to dysphagia for the previous 5 months. Forty years previously, she had undergone esophagocoloplasty for caustic esophagitis. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in the colonic interposition. The tumor was resected with oncologic margins and food transit was successfully restored.
