[Benign tumors of the esophagus].
The authors make an analysis of 30 observations of benign tumors of the esophagus (1979-1989). In 13 patients the tumors were found occasionally during the X-ray endoscopic examination, in 7 patients only the diagnosis was established on the basis of their complains, medical history and findings of an instrumental examination. A histological investigation has diagnosed leiomyoma in 10 patients, polyps in 7 patients and fibroma in 1 patient. Eighteen patients had single tumors, 2 patients had large tumors causing considerable obturation of the esophagus lumen. The endoscopic electroexcision was performed in 12 patients. No complications were noted. Only two patients were operated upon. Tumor enucleation was performed in 1 patients following laparotomy and gastrotomy. The other patient was subjected to resection of the esophagus after Torek followed by plasty of the large intestine. Long-term results were followed-up during 2-10 years. No recurrent tumors were noted. The endoscopic electroexcision of the benign esophageal tumors is the radical operation which is though to be the method of choice, especially for elderly patients with coexistent diseases.
