Abstract:
A case of a benign granular cell tumor located within the esophagus is reported. It was found in a 47 year-old man who presented with intermittent dysphagia. The low frequency of this neoplasm, in this organ, makes the case noteworthy. We also suggest the endoscopic extirpation of this tumor, in view of its macroscopic features, and discuss about the histogenesis.
