Giant intraluminal fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus.

Giant polyps of the esophagus are relatively rare. Without previous history, the diagnosis of the disease is difficult to be made by esophagography and esophagoscopy. A case of giant intraluminal fibrovascular polyp (13x4x3.5 cm) of the esophagus is presented. The polyp was retrieved from the esophagus by a Foley's catheter and resected via the oral route.
