A case report of a midesophageal diverticulum mimicking a fibrovascular esophageal polyp.
International Journal of Surgery Case Reports(2019)
摘要
•Esophageal diverticula and esophageal fibrovascular polyps are uncommon entities.•These anomalies often present with different symptomatology and may be associated with specific esophageal anatomy.•We present a case of a midesophageal mass, which was suggestive of a fibrovascular polyp upon diagnostic workup.•Operative exploration revealed the mass to be an esophageal diverticulum with a leading lipoma.•Esophageal diverticula may arise in the midesophagus secondary to inflammation or traction, such as a leading lipoma.
