It has been reported that various cancers frequently have mutations in the D-loop region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We examined the genetic alterations in this region of esophageal cancer using direct sequencing. Of 68 sequence variants, 15 have not been reported to date. Tumor mtDNA with these v

## Abstract Recent studies of various cancers, such as those of the breast, head and neck, bladder and lung, reported that 46–64% of somatic mutations in the D‐loop region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are observed. However, in esophageal cancer, only a low rate (5%) of somatic mutations has so far
