Abstract EN
Esophageal schwannoma is a rare diagnosis and historically has been a tumor of middle-aged females.
We report a case of a 22-year-old male presenting initially with dyspnea secondary to tracheal compression from an 8 × 6 × 3.0 cm esophageal schwannoma.
The tumor was surgically resected, and diagnosis was confirmed with immunohistochemical and pathological studies.
We report the youngest case of esophageal schwannoma in an otherwise healthy individual.
