Abstract EN
Esophageal leiomyomas (ELMs) are rare but described in the literature.
They are usually benign and do not require resection unless they are large and symptomatic.
Most of such masses arise from the muscularis mucosa.
It is very uncommon to find epithelial dysplasia overlying a subepithelial leiomyoma.
A review of the literature reveals only one prior case of ELM with an overlying epithelia dysplasia and here we report a second case.
