Abstract

The esophagus is the most common site of origin of gastrointestinal tract granular cell tumors. Approximately 270 cases of esophageal granular cell tumors have been reported in the literature. Most esophageal granular cell tumors are found incidentally during endoscopy. Although granular cell tumor of the esophagus has become easily recognizable by its endoscopic features, it has to be differentiated from other benign and malignant mucosal and submucosal lesions. The majority of esophageal granular cell tumors are asymptomatic and benign; thus, close follow-up of the patients with endoscopy could be considered sufficient as a therapeutic management. New therapeutic options should be considered especially for larger lesions. Three cases of granular cell tumors with complaints of epigastric discomfort, regurgitation, nausea, and vomiting, which were detected in the lower part of the esophagus on upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy, are discussed with the most recent literature review on this subject.

Özet

Özofagus, gastrointestinal traktus granüler hücreli tümörlerinin en sık görüldüğü lokalizasyondur. Literatürde yaklaşık 270 özofajial granüler hücreli tümör olgusu bildirilmiştir. Birçok özofajial granüler hücreli tümör endoskopi sırasında tesadüfen bulunmaktadır. Özofagusun granüler hücreli tümörü endoskopik özellikleriyle kolayca tanınır olmasına karşın diğer benign ve malign mukozal ve submukozal lezyonlardan ayırt edilmelidir. Özofajial granüler hücreli tümörlerin büyük bir kısmının asemptomatik ve benign olması nedeniyle hastaların endoskopi ile yakından takibi tedavi yaklaşımı açısından yeterli sayılabilir. Yeni tedavi seçenekleri özellikle daha büyük lezyonlar için düşünülmelidir. Epigastrik rahatsızlık, regürjitasyon, bulantı ve kusma yakınmaları olan, üst gastrointestinal trakt endoskopisi ile alt özofagusta lokalize olduğu saptanan üç granüler hücreli tümör olgusunun, bu konu ile ilgili en son literatür taraması eşliğinde tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
