Abstract

Lipoma is an uncommon benign tumor of the alimentary tract and its overall incidence is 4.1%, but that of the esophagus is extremely rare, with an incidence of only 0.4%. We present a case of esophageal lipoma. A 55-year-old man had a two-year history of dysphagia and odynophagia. Upper gastrointestinal system endoscopy showed a mass in the wall of the esophagus, occupying the lumen, and causing obstruction. Computed tomography and abdominal ultrasonography were performed because of endoscopic suspicion of submucosal tumor, and the mass was confirmed to be a lipoma in the wall of the esophagus. It was removed surgically by a thoracic approach. His symptoms resolved after the operation. Surgical excision by enucleation of the tumor is the preferred treatment of esophageal lipoma, but opening of the esophageal mucosa during this procedure is a rare cause for esophageal resection.

Özet

Lipom; insidansı %4.1 olan sindirim sisteminin nadir görülen benign bir tümörüdür, fakat özofagusta %0.4 gibi son derece düşük oranda olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu makalede bir özofagus lipomu vakası takdim edilmektedir. 55 yaşında bir erkek hastada 2 yıldır disfaji ve odinofaji mevcuttu. Üst gastoinestinal system endoskopisinde özofagus duvarında, lümeni daraltan kitle saptandı. Endoskopik olarak submukozal bir tumor şüphesi olduğu için hastaya bilgisayarlı tomografi ve abdominal ultasonografi yapıldı ve kitlenin özofagus lipomu olduğu doğ- rulandı. Bu kitle torasik yaklaşımla cerrahi olarak eksize edildi. Hastanın şikayetleri ameliyattan sonra tamamen geriledi. Özofagus lipomunun tercih edilen tedavi şekli cerrahi olarak tümörün enükleasyonla eksizyonudur, fakat işlem sırasında özofagus mukozasının açılması bu hastalıkta özofagus rezeksiyonu gerektirebilen nadir bir nedendir.
