Small Bowel Obstruction Caused by Small Intestinal Metastasis Secondary to Esophageal Carcinoma

Despite the frequent rapid spread of esophageal cancers to other organs, metastases to the small intestine are uncommon. As such, this paper describes a case of a 60-year-old male who developed a small intestinal obstruction due to metastasis from esophageal carcinoma. This patient had received radi...
