Fibrovascular polyp (FVP) of the esophagus is a benign intraluminal tumor that consists primarily of loose connective tissue with numerous vessels and can attain vast dimensions. Symptoms are commonly dysphagia, vomiting, and weight loss. Small polyps can be removed endoscopically, but larger masses should be excised surgically because of the potential for hemorrhage. This case report illustrates the characteristic features of this unusual disease.
食管纤维血管性息肉(FVP)是一种良性腔内肿瘤,主要由含有大量血管的疏松结缔组织构成,可长得很大。症状通常为吞咽困难、呕吐和体重减轻。小的息肉可通过内镜切除,但较大的肿块因有出血风险,应手术切除。本病例报告阐述了这种罕见疾病的特征。
