  • Title: Esophageal resection for giant leiomyoma.
    Author: Gupta V, Sinha SK, Vaiphei K, Lal A.
    Journal: J Cancer Res Ther; 2015; 11(3):651. PubMed ID: 26458627.
    Abstract:
    A 55-year-old Indian female presented with chest discomfort at swallowing and occasional dyspnea. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed an extramucosal mass in the upper and mid esophagus. Computerized tomogram visualized a mass 7×11 cm in diameter in the middle esophagus with eccentric lumen and tracheal compression. Transthoracic esophagectomy was performed. She made an uneventful recovery. Diagnosis of leiomyoma was established on histopathology and immunohistochemistry staining.
