Hello,

* Sorry to say but the result is indicative of the advanced stage of the esophagus with peritoneal metastasis.
* The only palliative and supportive care would be possible to be offered to such case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
