Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic aspect of basaloid squamous carcinoma （BSC）. Methods From July 2000 to May 2003, the clinical data of 1 257 documented cases that underwent potentially curative resection on esophageal carcinoma in our department were retrospectively analysed, and 18 cases of BSC （BSC group） were detected. And 54 cases of typical squamous carcinoma of esophagus（ESC） were randomly selected as control （ESC group）, to analyse the clinicopathological and prognostic parameters of BSC patients. Results The age of BSC group patients was higher than that of ESC group （61. 56 ± 7. 62 years vs. 56.11± 10. 58 years; t=-2. 012,P=0. 048）, and the ratio of T4 stage was much higher than that in ESC group （27.8% vs. 5.6%;x2= 6. 750, P= 0. 020）. The follow-up showed that, comparing with ESC group, the ratio of metastasis was higher（62.5% vs. 25.0%, P=0. 047）, and mean survival time（P〈0.05） was significantly shorter in patients of BSC group after curative resection. There were no statisticaly differences in patient gender （P = 0. 494）, or ratio of recurrence （P=0. 887） between two groups. Conclusion The BSC is a rare carcinoma involving esophagus, which occurs in elder patients. Both invasiveness and metastasis of BSC are more usual than those of typical ESC.
