Abstract
The present report communicates a case of multiple solitary leiomyomata of the esophagus. This is an uncommon condition in which multiple, non-confluent, benign esophageal tumors arise in the same patient. The ideal treatment is enucleation of the lesions, but when these are--as in the case reported--huge and annular, or affect the gastroesophageal junction, resection of the gullet must be performed.Entities:
