Although infrequent, esophageal leiomyomas are the most common benign intramural tumors of the esophagus. As malignant potential is not a concern in these lesions, they represent ideal candidates for an organ-preserving approach. Due to their well-circumscribed growth, a minimally invasive approach should be pursued in almost all patients. We present our recent techniques and results associated with totally minimally invasive thoracoscopic and laparoscopic approaches to resection of esophageal leiomyomas. These approaches require technical expertise but can be accomplished with a short learning curve.
尽管食管平滑肌瘤并不常见，但却是食管最常见的良性壁内肿瘤。由于这些病变不存在恶性潜能问题，它们是采用保留器官方法的理想候选对象。因其生长边界清晰，几乎所有患者都应采用微创方法。我们介绍了与完全微创胸腔镜和腹腔镜切除食管平滑肌瘤相关的最新技术和结果。这些方法需要专业技术，但学习曲线较短，能够完成手术。
