{Abstract}: A chest wall mass can result from a diversity of underlying disease processes ranging from benign to a site of distant metastasis. The chest wall is a rare site for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) metastasis. Delayed diagnosis can occur when presenting symptoms are not typical of esophageal pathology, and advanced-stage EAC has a high morbidity and low survival rates. Our case demonstrates a rare and unusual presentation of EAC with a poor outcome due to delayed diagnosis.
