A patient had clinical, endoscopic, and roentgenographs signs of esophageal carcinoma, but biopsies and brushings were negative. At operation he was found to have blastomycosis localized to the esophagogastric region and adjacent lymph nodes. There was no evidence of pulmonary disease. He was treated successfully by partial esophagectomy and amphotericin. The literature on esophageal blastomycosis is reviewed.
