Abstract:
Pyloric gland adenoma is a rare neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract typically observed in the stomach with a substantial malignant potential warranting its resection. While isolated esophageal pyloric gland adenoma has been reported, there is no literature on the encounter of diffuse, multifocal esophageal pyloric gland adenoma or its management. We present a unique case of multifocal pyloric gland adenoma of the esophagus treated by circumferential endoscopic submucosal dissection. We demonstrate endoscopic submucosal dissection to be a feasible management option.
