Secondary solid tumors that occur after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are late complications of HSCT. Previously, secondary solid tumors were considered to be recipient-derived cells because transplanted cells do not contain epithelial cells. Recently, however, not only donor‑derived epithelial cells but also donor-derived secondary solid tumors have also been reported in mice and humans. It means that circulating bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMDCs) including hematopoietic stem cells include the stem cells of many tissue types and the precancerous cells of many solid tumors. In most reports of donor-derived secondary solid tumors, however, tumors contained a low proportion of BMDC-derived epithelial cells in mixed solid tumor tissues. To our knowledge, there are only five known cases of completely donor-derived tumor tissues, i.e., four oral SCCs and a pharyngeal SCC. In this study, we analyzed five human clinical samples of solid tumors, i.e., two esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), two oral SCCs and a tongue carcinoma. In the oral and tongue, completely donor-derived tissues were not observed, but in esophagus a completely donor-derived esophageal epidermis and SCC were observed for the first time. In addition, in another esophageal SCC patient, a completely donor-derived dysplasia region of esophageal epidermis was observed near recipient-derived SCC. This study suggests that BMDC-derived cells include the stem cells of esophageal epidermis and the precancerous cells of esophageal SCC and can differentiate into esophageal epithelium and esophageal SCC.
