Resumen
VELASQUEZ-CUASQUEN, Braulio Giovanni et al. Villous adenoma of the esophagus in ectopic gastric mucosa: A case report. Rev. colomb. Gastroenterol. [online]. 2021, vol.36, suppl.1, pp.72-77. Epub 21-Feb-2022. ISSN 0120-9957. https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.596.
Introduction:
Villous adenomas are lesions of the digestive tract with a high tendency to malignancy. Its location in ectopic gastric mucosa patches in the cervical esophagus is an atypical presentation of clinical and pathological interest.
Objective:
To present a case of villous adenoma in ectopic gastric mucosa of the cervical esophagus.
Methods:
A case study of a patient with a diagnosis of villous adenoma is presented, as well as a review of the current literature.
Results:
A tubulovillous adenoma with low-grade dysplasia was identified by histopathological study. Its endoscopic location was a gastric ectopic mucosa patch in the cervical esophagus.
Conclusions:
The location of villous adenomas in the cervical esophagus may predispose to the development of neoplastic lesions. Detailed evaluation of this segment using techniques, such as high-definition digital chromoendoscopy, would allow for early detection and treatment of these lesions.
