    Abstract:
    Improvements in video endoscopic technique opens a wide spreaded field of indications of thoracoscopic surgery especially in benign tumors of the esophagus. A 58-years old patient presented with dysphagia. Preoperatively a benign, intramural tumor of the esophagus wall was diagnosed. Enucleation of the tumor was performed by right videothoracoscopy. The use of thoracoscopic operative technique implies rapid disappearance of complaints and a reduced time of hospitalisation.
