Two case reports are given of patients suffering from malignant melanoma of the esophagus, which occurs very rarely. In both patients the leading clinical symptom was dysphagia. Diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopy and biopsy, and surgery was done. One patient died within 3 weeks from pneumonia, the second patient is alive 3 months after resection of the tumor and is free of symptoms.
