ABSTRACT
Esophageal hemangioma is an extremely rare benign tumor that causes dysphagia and massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Although certain abnormalities seen on a barium swallow esophagography or at endoscopy may suggest an esophageal hemangioma, a contrast CT and radionuclide angiography using a blood-pool radiopharmaceutical can characterize the intense vascularity of the tumor. We experienced the ase of a 7x7x3.5 cm in size giant cavernous hemangioma of the lower 1/3 of esophagus in a 40 year old man. A mural cavernous hemangioma was diagnosed with a barium swallowed esophagogaphy, endoscopy, and a contrast CT. It was treated successfully by transthoracic esophagectomy including the tumor and esophagogastrostomy.
