LIPOMA OF THE ESOPHAGUS: REPORT OF A CASE
Öz
We present a case of esophageal lipoma. A 55-year-old man had dysphagia and odynophagia for 2 years. Upper gastrointestinal system endoscopy showed a mass in the wall of the esophagus, occupying the lumen, causing obstruction. Computed tomography and abdominal ultrasound was performed because of endoscopic suspicion of submucosal tumor, the mass was confirmed to be a lipoma in the wall of esophagus. It was removed surgically by a thoracic approach. His symptoms healed after the operation.
