Bizarre stromal cells in lower oesophageal polyps mimicking malignancy : a case report

الملخص EN

Bizarre stromal cells are characterized by the presence of reactive hyperchromatic atypical cells in inflamed stroma, which can be misdiagnosed for malignancy or infectious process.

It is found in various organs and is most common in the gastrointestinal system.

It is pivotal to recognize the benign features of bizarre stromal cells using histology and immunohistochemistry to avoid unnecessary major treatment.

We present a case of a forty six-year-old man with epigastric pain.

An endoscopy was performed, and a small nodule was found in the lower oesophagus.

The bizarre stromal cells were found, and the reactive nature of the nodule was confirmed.
