Material method: 675 esophageal biopsies that accepted to Erzurum Region Training and Research Hospital Pathology Department between 2008 and 2016 were reviewed retrospectively. 238 malignant cases were included to the study. Data such as age and gender of the cases were obtained from the hospital system. Results: 238 (35.25%) of 675 esophageal biopsies were malignant. The mean age of the group was 66,75 (age range 23-96). 194 of our patients were squamous epithelial carcinoma, 40 of them adenocarcinoma and 4 of them were mixed-type tumours (squamous epithelial carcinoma + small cell carcinoma). In squamous epithelial cell carcinoma group the mean age was 66,35, with a female : male ratio 112:82.But in adenocarcinoma group a male dominance was seen (Female : male ratio was 11:29).
