Radiofrequency ablation is a common treatment for atrial fibrillation, and esophageal complications are exceedingly rare. This report describes the case of a patient with no other known cancer risk factors who had esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that developed at the site of esophageal thermal injury, which occurred during a radiofrequency catheter ablation procedure.
