Carcinoma esophagus is a disease of late age with very few cases reported in world literature of its occurrence in young age. The exact cause of this disease in teenagers is not known, but the treatment remains the same. We cam across one such case of a 12-year-old girl with squamous cell carcinoma Grade I of esophagus. The case is reported due to its rarity.
