Abstract
A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and advanced esophageal cancer(cT3N3M1, clinical Stage IV, high-moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma). He was started on remission induction chemotherapy and postremission therapy provided according to the Japan Adult Leukemia Study Group's AML201 protocols. His acute myeloid leukemia showed a complete response. After that, he was administered radiotherapy for esophageal cancer and showed a partial response. One year after treatment, he developed a local recurrence of esophageal cancer. A salvage operation was performed at another hospital, and his postoperative course was uneventful. A case of acute myeloid leukemia with advanced esophageal cancer is rare and has a poor prognosis, but we could improve the prognosis and quality of life.
