Endoscopic Esophageal Polypectomy of a Giant Fibrovascular Polyp: Case Report and Literature Review ; รายงานผู้ป่วยที่ได้รับการรักษาติ่งเนื้อขนาดใหญ่ที่หลอดอาหารโดยวิธีส่องกล้อง

Background: Giant fibrovascular polyps of the esophagus are rare tumors. They are usually located in the upper third of the esophagus. Symptoms include dysphagia and regurgitation of the mass into the oral cavity, which can cause airway obstruction, secondary to mechanical pressure on the larynx. We present a 34-year-old male patient with a 10-month history of gradually intermittent dysphagia and regurgitating mass into the mouth without syncope, airway obstruction, weight loss, melena and hematemesis. After diagnosis of a giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus, endoscopic polypectomy was performed. Histopathological examination revealed a fibrovascular polyp. Esophagoscopy at 2 years after excision showed no mass or symptom recurrence. The literatures regarding giant esophageal polyp were reviewed.
