Gastrointestinal Imaging: Esophagus

A classic appearance of {{c1::advanced esophageal carcinoma}} is a mass causing a stricture with a “shouldered” edge and irregular contour (apple-core appearance).

Extra Info

The uncommon varicoid appearance can be confused with varices, but the tumor does not change shape with peristaltic waves as varices typically do.
