Core Tip We used a multimodal treatment approach for locally advanced unresectable esophageal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). Two aspects of this case are noteworthy. First, because NEC was finally diagnosed through postoperative pathological examination, the chemotherapy was administered based on the initial presumption of squamous cell carcinoma. This facilitated complete resolution of the squamous cell carcinoma component, allowing for subsequent targeting of the remaining NEC component. Second, following chemotherapy, no new distant metastases developed, with effective tumor control for the primary lesion and metastatic lymph nodes. Thus, surgery can be effective if resection is feasible, even for locally advanced NEC.
