title: Squamous cell papilloma of esophagus.
abstract: Squamous cell papilloma of the esophagus is rare. Seven well-documented cases have been reported in the English literature. Three further cases are presented, in one of which symptoms were related to the tumour. Although there is no proof that this lesion is premalignant, coincident cancer must be excluded. In each of the authors' cases, endoscopic removal of the tumour was possible. The etiology of esophageal squamous cell papilloma has not been established.
