A rare case of giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus

Fibrovascular polyps of the esophagus are rare, benign, and submucosal tumor-like lesions, their course is usually indolent until reaching enormous proportions. The most frequent symptoms are dysphagia, vomiting, and weight loss. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, since endoscopic removal is not always feasible. We report a case of a 59-year-old man with a giant fibrovascular polyp who complained of progressive dysphagia. The lesion was resected by left cervical approach. The patient remains symptom-and recurrence-free within one-year of follow-up.
