[Leiomyoma of the esophagus and pulmonary metastasis].
An important and symptomatic esophageal leiomyoma is treated by enucleation. A secondary metastasis, also important and symptomatic, is resected 3 years later. The follow-up is now 2 years, without any sign of relapse. This case allows for discussion of the malignancy of leiomyoma and of its microscopic criteria.
