Oesophageal metastasis of prostate cancer is extremely rare and typically indicates advanced disease with a poor prognosis. The clinical manifestations are nonspecific and often lead to misdiagnosis. A definitive diagnosis relies on histopathology and immunohistochemical markers, such as PSA and P504S. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for metastatic prostate cancer in cases of unexplained oesophageal lesions. We hope that this case will increase clinicians' awareness of metastatic oesophageal cancer.
