Intramural metastasis to the stomach (IMMS) from carcinoma esophagus, excluding direct invasion and spread to the stomach, is relatively uncommon. Diagnosis of IMMS is based on histological criteria, and it is associated with poor prognosis (Takubo et al. Cancer 65:1816-1819, 1990]. We report two patients of SCC oesophagus in whom intramural metastasis to stomach has occurred.
