    AbstractWe report a patient with concurrent superficial carcinomas of the esophagus and stomach. The tumors occurred in a 68-year-old woman. The esophageal tumor was an intramucosal squamous cell carcinoma, and the gastric tumor an intramucosal adenocarcinoma, type III in the Japanese classification of early gastric cancer. This is the first reported case of associated superficial esophageal and gastric cancers originating from a Western country. Such an association may be more frequent than realized, and therefore it is important to examine both the stomach and esophagus if a patient has one of these tumors.
