RESUMEN
Abrikosoff's tumor or granular cell tumor is a neoplasm of neural origin, usually located in the head and neck region. A majority of these neoplasms are benign. Only 4-6% of granular cell tumors are located in the gastrointestinal tract. It is extremely unusual for these tumors to be located in the esophagus. This case is being reported in view of the rarity of this lesion. A brief review of literature with stress on diagnostic evaluation and management issues is also included.
