Abstract

Reports on esphageal granular cell tumor are relatively rare. Recently we have experienced two cases of esophageal granular cell tumor removed by endoscopic polypectomy. Both were females, 58 and 54 year-old, respectively, and without tumor-related complaints. Diagnosis was made by esophagogram and endscopic biopsy specimens. The two patients were treated with endoscopic polypectomy. To our knowledge 59 cases of this tumor were reported in literatures in Japan and the present cases were 60th and 61th respectively. The symptoms and management of esophageal granular cell tumors were discussed.
