Five cases of granular cell tumor of the esophagus are reported. In four cases, the tumor was an asymptomatic, incidental finding. In one case, a larger granular cell tumor presented with dysphagia and required local surgical excision. Long-term follow-up in three cases revealed no evidence of tumor progression. Esophageal granular cell tumors are benign lesions which can frequently be diagnosed by endoscopic biopsy. Asymptomatic, smaller lesions require observation only. Larger, symptomatic lesions can be treated with local surgical excision.
报告了5例食管颗粒细胞瘤。其中4例肿瘤为无症状的偶然发现。1例较大的颗粒细胞瘤表现为吞咽困难，需要局部手术切除。3例患者的长期随访未发现肿瘤进展的证据。食管颗粒细胞瘤是良性病变，通常可通过内镜活检确诊。无症状的较小病变仅需观察。较大的有症状病变可采用局部手术切除治疗。
