Most adenomas of the esophagus are mucin-producing lesions in the setting of Barrett esophagus, or originate in Barrett’s metaplastic epithelium, or are composed of cells with gastric epithelial features including parietal cells. Benign ductal or glandular neoplasms not associated with Barrett esophagus are very rare. There have been several reports of esophageal adenoma developing in the submu...

Four thousand eighty inbred rats were maintained from weaning on various different concentrations of N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) or N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). The principal aim was to characterize the dose-response relationship for the effects of these agents on esophageal cancer (NDEA) or on various types of liver cancer (NDEA and NDMA), although NDEA also caused a few tumors of the nasop...

Leiomyomas are rare benign esophageal neoplasms with an indolent clinical course. Symptoms mimic that of esophageal cancer. Esophagoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography are the main diagnostic methods. Symptomatic and large leiomyomas should be treated surgically while small, asymptomatic lesions may be managed by regular follow up and repeated endoscopies.

Esophageal lipomas are rare tumors, making up 0.4% of all digestive tract benign neoplasms. Most of these lesions are clinically silent as a result of their small size, however, the majority of lesions over 4 cm have been reported to cause dysphagia, regurgitation and/or epigastralgia. We report a case of a 53 year-old African American female who presented with dysphagia. Computed tomography of...
